The expectation is that Greene will be moved even before the Winter Meetings start in Las Vegas on Monday. The Cardinals are said to be giving up two relief prospects to obtain Greene, sources tell The Post.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Awesome. Greene is absolutely horrible. I welcome him to the Cardinals.
Granted, if the Padres are getting bullpen guys from the Cards, they aren't getting much in return. The Cardinals bullpen was horrible last year. If they had any prospects worth a damn, they would have been on the MLB roster.

I'm sure you're right. My guess is the Pads would almost literally take nothing in return if the other team took all of Greene's salary.

Aryan-looking Jewish Muslims cannot play shortstop.
