That's the message DeWitt sent the last 3 seasons, and it will continue just a bunch of hot air to get you to buy season tickets. As long as there's a 3 million draw same old ways it's working. Who hires a GM and makes him wait to learn from the guy he's replacing.
Do you deserve better? Why?

Well, the Cards just ponied up 20 million in the Gray trade purely for the purpose of obtaining higher quality prospects in return.

Don't recall a lot of that happening under the previous regime, at least not in the 20 million+ range.
And if the suspects don't pan out?
Then BDWJr's heirs are out $20M and will have to somehow get by on $3,980,000,000 instead of $4,000,000,000. :mrgreen:

This is just exhibit 989 how large of a nimcompoop Mo was. Gives a 5’10 180 lb mid 30’s SP a contract with a giant ramp when Gray is past 36…. ::crazya::
