Don't know how good Peralta will be without the PEDs, but he got paid. Just like with Melky Cabrera two seasons ago. The incentive is still there to cheat because teams will hand out big money to them, even after they're busted.

Cards upgraded their weakest positions (SS, CF), have good, young pitching, and have the speedster Wong at second. Their future looks bright.

You shit-kicking, stinky, horse-manure-smelling motherfucker you! If you ever get out of line over there again, I'll smash your fucking head so hard you won't be able to get that cowboy hat on. You hear me? Fucking hick. -Nicky (Casino)
