Cardinals struggle in series losses, drawing Cubs rebuild comparisons

The St. Louis Cardinals face a challenging season after suffering two consecutive series losses, including a disappointing game against the Diamondbacks. These results have extinguished hopes for a postseason run, prompting discussions about the team's direction. Comparisons are being drawn to the Chicago Cubs' rebuild under Theo Epstein, particularly the challenges both teams faced and how they restructured their rosters. The Cardinals are reportedly transitioning into a seller's market, mirroring the Cubs' earlier struggles. As the rebuild unfolds, the franchise aims for future success despite ongoing adversity.
