Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Arthur Rhodes is expected to make a decision on which team to sign with on Thursday. Goold adds that Rhodes nearly signed with the Cardinals two years ago and his colleague, Joe Strauss, reported earlier that the Cardinals were "kicking tires" on the left-hander. They're one of several teams that have interest in the 41-year-old lefty, with the Yankees also known to be considering him.
