Holding Fedde and Helsley when their value was at it's peak to appease the people who still thought they could contend in 2025.
+1 it was the dumbest move mo made in the off season was keeping fedde and helsley. Helsely had a down season from the season before lowering his trade value since he had only two months of control months left and wasn’t as effective and fedde was awful and his value just completely tanked. Hopefully bloom won’t hold onto players like Gorman until their value is near zero like mo did with Carlson
Mo was not going to put the effort into dealing either last winter. He was hoping to finish. 500 or better. It was more important to him to be able to claim only 1 losing season. More important than fixing the roster.
