Scan any winter league roster—the Dominican, Venezuela, Mexico and Puerto Rico—and his name is nowhere to be found.

Colby Rasmus, the Cardinals' top prospect despite a mostly forgettable 2008 season, is sitting this one out.

Where have you gone Colby Rasmus. If you ask Cardinals fans, you think the guy was done but that’s hardly the case. The Cardinals had one of the top prospects in all of baseball in Rasmus and he fell flat and was hurt most of the year. Still, the Cardinals had some great succes in [...]

I guess age makes a difference in perception. So, while many younger people are horrified about the idea of trading Colby Rasmus for anyone or anything, I just can't get the thought of Jim Lindeman out of my head. Back...

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Padres told the Braves they want three prospects for Jake Peavy.This would appear to be a bounty that the Redbirds could afford to match. I would still prefer to avoid giving away Colby Rasmus,...

St. Louis: No, you're not going to see Colby Rasmus just yet as he's just working his way back from injury and isn't on the 40-man roster. An arm is more likely, someone like Mitchell Boggs, who struggled earlier in the season in the big leagues. A big arm like Jason Motte (107 K's in 64 2/3 innings) could give the bullpen some assistance. MiLB
