Berkman hopes to stay put with the Cards

By Anthony Caruso III

Lance Berkman does not believe he’ll have another home this season.

Berkman does not believe he’ll be traded before the August 31st waiver deadline. Berkman is eligible to be traded to any team after passing through waivers.

However, he believes the Cardinals have no intention to trade him to a contender. The Cardinals have been shopping Berkman around, even before the non-waiver deadline on July 31st, but could not strike a deal.

The Texas Rangers have been rumored as a possible suitor.

"I’m not going to get moved," said Berkman. " I think the ship has sailed. I really do."
