Bloomer Speak

[desertrat23]

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.

C-H-A-I-M.

His childish attempt at (failed) humor before the man has spent one day in the POBO office and in charge.

It really is. We’ve seen a couple of folks already making jokes about the guy’s name. They know what they’re doing.

Yes they do

Your hypocrisy is showing.

How so?

Was I responding to you?

It's impolite to answer a question with a question. But I apologize, you are correct.

Remember when Cardly wanted the Cards to sign Trevor Story. We all told him he was = to Paul DeJong outside of Coors Field and he just couldn't believe it. And now in his 4th season with Boston (with a lot of games missed) Story has a very PDJ-like .244/.300/.412 batting line.

Cardly is the quintessential shiny object poster where the shiny object always has to be some well-known (and likely declining and overpaid) name from another team that he knows nothing about other than the player's name and that they are "established"

I'd be curious what his plan is to contend for 2026. Where is he getting his #3 hitter, #4 hitter, and #2 starter?

There is no plan to contend in 2026. If you’re hoping to hear one, you may need to recalibrate

I myself am well adjusted to reality. As well as I can be.

“Bag on” Bloom all you want. Intentionally screwing with his first name? Again, people know what they’re doing, and let’s not pretend they don’t.

This scumbag is the biggest Dewitt/Mo lover in the forum, he's got a mancrush on Mo as well as Matheny.

Put the slime on ignore, I did long ago but he seems to have a mancrush on me too since he keeps references me in threads.

Sorry riffy, you'll have to stick to your love for Mo since I don't go your way.

Go outside and get some air.
You are one miserable SOB.

A plan is better than no plan

+1 mo has had no plan

Cut him some slack. As we all know, good to great business executives never have a plan. It takes time away from bow tie shopping.

Yes Rat, do as your leader says and put me on ignore. I don't believe I've ever mentioned Matheny in a post.
As far as Mo goes I've rarely spoken about him. Rockotheclown # fraud and liar.

I agree.

[Cardly]

My OP was intended to simply be a summary of what the forecast likely will be for the next few for the Cards.

It is interesting and annoying to read the responses from the "hired minions" on this thread. Goodness! If we were in the same room I would hope for better respect of differing opinions... name calling? Childish!

I sincerely believe that most of Cardinals Nation is not a huge fan of this poorly constructed and communicated rebuild. It is one this to modestly tank but a proud franchise like this should never be this rotten this long!

Please consider selling the team Billy D! You had a fantastic run and for that we are glad. It's time to move on.

The Bad Trades

1) Mookie Betts and David Price and cash for Alex Verdugo, Connor Wong and Jeter Downs

It’s a given that this trade was forced upon Bloom by ownership and he was merely carrying out orders. But he failed to get enough back for a generational player. Verdugo has been only slightly better than average while Wong is an adequate major league catcher. Downs flopped and is out of the organization. Fairly or not, this deal will go down as the most memorable of his tenure in Boston — and Bloom failed to maximize the return.

2) Traded Hunter Renfroe for Jackie Bradley Jr., David Hamilton and Alex Binelas

A disaster, no matter which way you cut it. While Renfroe was overrated by many, Bradley was essentially done when he was reacquired. Hamilton would seem to be a 4A player at best with speed and not much else to recommend about his game. Binelas is a fringy minor leaguer who is unlikely to contribute much — if anything — at the major league level.

3) Traded Jeffrey Springs and Chris Mazza for Ronaldo Hernandez and Nick Sogard

Bloom obtained Springs for Sam Travis in a deal with the Rangers and should have stopped there. Instead, he then turned around and packaged him for a catcher who hasn’t gotten out of Triple A after three seasons and a minor league utility player. The irony was that Bloom was supposed to be the one acquiring unheralded pitching prospects and developing them, not giving them away.

Hunter Renfroe? Gimme a break.

The Springs trade, the other hand, was, yeah...a whiff of Mozeliakian proportions.
