Re: If Yadi Is Here Next Year, Bloom Won’t Be
Hiring Molina would excite the fan base. But they still need to win. I am pretty sure when Bloom was hired all manager scenarios were discussed and agreed upon. And last night's appearance as a "honorary coach" was part of the plan. I don't remember that distinction ever offered before.

I think youre reading too much into it. He was in town and the Cardinals invited him to be in the dugout. If anything, it's an attempt to create some buzz for the fans.Pura Vida wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 10:48 am Hiring Molina would excite the fan base. But they still need to win.

He may let marmol finish his contract.

Re: If Yadi Is Here Next Year, Bloom Won’t Be
This is the correct take.rockondlouie wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 08:23 am First, Bloom needs to hire "his" guy
Second, pretty sure that was agreed upon w/BDWJr before he accepted the job
Third, if he does choose Yadi (or Albert) it will be because he wants them and no Dewitt
Fourth, I don't think there would be any clash of egos.........the egomaniac POBO is retiring and Bloom seems to be the antithesis of Mo
Don't know if the Cardinals will keep Oli or not, but I don't expect that Molina will be the manager in 2026.
Manly because:
1. He's proved nothing as a manager.
2. it would be so hard to fire him.

The worst move would be to retain Oli if the franchise is truly suppose to be turning over a new leaf and moving on from the Mo era.

If the club is performing poorly, why would it be hard to fire him?Red Bird Classic wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 12:32 pmThis is the correct take.rockondlouie wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 08:23 am First, Bloom needs to hire "his" guy

Molina's fans see no evil with him. They think he's the toughest, smartest, and greatest leader in the history of baseball.45s wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 12:43 pmIf the club is performing poorly, why would it be hard to fire him?Red Bird Classic wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 12:32 pmThis is the correct take.rockondlouie wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 08:23 am First, Bloom needs to hire "his" guy

They'd blame any failure on others, and they'd scream bloody murder if he were canned.

They would rather lose with molina, than perhaps win with someone else …

Re: If Yadi Is Here Next Year, Bloom Won’t Be
They wouldn't see it in those terms. They'd claim others were at fault. They'd say Yadi wasn't given a fair shot because bla bla bla.45s wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 13:10 pmSo….Red Bird Classic wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 13:03 pmMolina's fans see no evil with him.

I hate to think of bad things would have to get before these people would agree that Molina needed to be fired.
