Mozeliak Expects Cardinals To Be Buyers At Deadline

Jul 22, 2012 2:52 PM EST

The Cardinals will be buyers at the trade deadline despite a slow start to the second half of the season, according to general manager John Mozeliak.

The defending World Series champions came into Saturday night's game against the Cubs five games back in the NL Central at 48-45.

Mozeliak said there is payroll flexibility for the short and long-term, but indicates the team most likely will seek bullpen upgrades.
