Neshek leads list of Cards’ five free agents

While general manager John Mozeliak won’t let the winter pass without trying to fill some holes, the Cardinals are fortunate in that they won’t have many of them. Just three players on their postseason roster (Pat Neshek, A.J. Pierzynski and Mark Ellis) are eligible for free agency, and only Neshek played a prominent role for this team. Jason Motte and Justin Masterson round out the Cardinals’ free-agent class.
