The St. Louis Cardinals and Todd Wellemeyer have signed a one year contract for 2008.  The new contract will pay Wellemeyer $1 million dollars.  He was asking for $1.325 in arbitration, but settled on the $1 million spot.  Pretty good payday for him.

Wellemeyer could compete for a spot in the Cardinals roation but I think he is better suited for the bullpen.  He can come in and throw some gas for an inning and really help out the ball club more then as a starter.  That is my opinion anyways.  What do you think Cardinals fans?
