Both teams have exactly the same to show for the money spent over that time.

When the Cards do what the Brewers do and have a solid regular season and bust out in the playoffs, nobody is happy. Why does everyone want the Cardinals to be the Brewers? They haven't won anything. Haven't even come close.

I think that’s the point. They spent way more and haven’t made the playoffs in a while. You would hope they would have fared better over that period of time especially as of late.

Oh well moving forward with this new model.

Yea why would the cardinals want to develop impact major league players and being well run at bringing in talent that lead to the brewers going to the post season 7 of the last 8 seasons winning the division three seasons in a row and 5 of the last 8 seasons just horrible fate that would be. Imagine what the brewers guardians and rays could do if they had the payroll the cardinals had had with their player development system. And only idiots who haven’t paid attention to what’s going on with the cardinals think that the cardinals aren’t going to ever spend again and are adopting a complete small market model

No thanks to being the "new" Brewers. Regular season success with zero post season success doesn't interest me. Many on this board bash the 2019 Cards for being swept in the NLCS. Well, that was the apex of the Brewers success in the past 7 years of their "dynasty". No thanks.

It will be the new brewers with higher payroll. And no thanks to mos model of no longer making the playoffs. lol your claim to cardinals recent success is cardinals getting swept out of NLCS in 2019 lol and you want more of that lol maybe in another 6 years under mos model they might have had that happen again big success

How about the Cardinals become the "Brewers+?" In other words, it is my hope that the Cardinals start developing players as well as the Brewers have, and then bring in the last couple pieces to the puzzle to make this a solid contending team.

Respectfully, they have become a hell of a lot closer than we have. Often.

They don't need to be the "new" Brewers they should be a better version of them or a much more scaled back version of the Dodgers. Develop a ton of talent and spend money where necessary. The Dodgers haven't just bought all FAs they've made a lot of trades too because they also are good at draft and development.

Wow!

That embarrassing 2019 sweep in the NLCS was the apex of the Cardinals’ success in the past 11 years of our “dynasty”.

And by your second sentence I guess you prefer the Cardinals plan (up till now at least) of mostly (6 of past 10) regular-season failure with no postseason at all.

"new" Brewers are like "old" Cardinals - Great regular season and playoff flameouts, both teams have had hideous postseasons since 2015.

[rockondlouie]

Cardinals revenues from 2017 - 2025

$2.519B

Brewers revenues from 2017 - 2025

$2.274 B



Cardinals attendance from 2017 - 2025

21.57M


Brewers attendance from 2017 - 2025

19.86M

Cardinals average payroll from 2017 - 2025

$160.7 M

Brewers average payroll from 2017 - 2025

$117.2M


I hope the Cardinals spent at least $40+M per year given their revenue and attendance advantage.

And for all the Brewer fuss they've been a massive FLOP in the playoffs going 11 - 20.

Nothing to see here…..MOVE ON…..MOVE ON

[sikeston bulldog2]

Most here condemn the Brewers. Their post season issues where they met up with another good team in a format that only one team can advance. And came close several times.

I’ll take a great season of 162 fun filled nights on CT on the GDT. Then my chances on good results in post season.

Cant get to one without the other.

You have zero chance of winning in the post season if you dont make it to the post season. Give me the Brewers yearly consistency any time. They are at least somewhat of an attractive destination for free agents.

I dont expect, nor need a world series every year. Just get to the playoffs and give me glimmer of hope for a W S.
