Bloomer Speak
Heim Bloomer speak: Katie Woo and others are already saying it...
He will sell of other pieces this winter and hope to get more children for the minors.
He will build up the minors and hope players emerge over time.
He will add MLB talent only when necessary and will use those adds as supplemental.
It will be YEARS before the Cards return to relevance.
Buster Olney said: Hein the Bloomer was hesitant to make trades while with the Red Sox. Buster said he will be interested to see if he is hesitant here as well. Mo seemed to have no idea how to make a trade. It will be interesting to see if this guy does or if it is more of the same with a different sweater.

Re: Bloomer Speak
I’m fine with the a few years to rebuild as long as they finally have a direction. Mo didn’t go for it to try to win and he he never went in for a rebuild it was all about sustaining mediocrity hoping and praying they squeak in and then pray for miracles

Re: Bloomer Speak
Hesitant means we keep those two pitchers and two sluggo outfielders! It can pay dividends in spades.

Re: Bloomer Speak
You called it Bloom speak but all I see are quotes from Katie Woo and Buster Olney (Buster Olney?). Where did Bloom speak?
By the way, does it tell you something about Buster Olney that he works for ESPN? The network that is no longer going to cover baseball?
I thought your second paragraph was something from Woo but it looks like that's just Cardly speak.

Re: Bloomer Speak
Mo never had any hesitancy making trades. You could argue that, at times, he should have (had hesitancy) but he made plenty of trades. You want to see what not making trades looks like? Welcome to the Bloom era...

Re: Bloomer Speak
Mo was hesitant to trade. He sucked as GM/PBO which besides many bad contracts or even extensions to known injured players, he almost never took what the cardinals had, and traded some of it for what they needed, which is one reason they are stuck where they are now. Those two things together, made him a semi worthless GM that it is hard to imagine the most average of average GMs/PBO would not do the same or better.
