Post by swatski »

How bad do you have to be to have so little talent with any trade value on the major league roster? Thanks, Mo.

Mo combined with laissez faire ownership for the last 6-7 years have turned this historic franchise into the Cincinnati Reds.

You cannot blame MO'ron for this, this is ALL on BDW 2. He is the owner and is very much in charge. Along with his Son.

YOu want to blame people, blame the hands on owners.

I don’t think it matters whose fault it is. What matters is how we get back to long term winning ways. Bloom is renovating this place from top to bottom. Time will tell if it works. He appears to have a plan for sustainable success. A new CBA may help mid market teams compete, which we would all welcome.

Owner was more concerned with profits than investments.

You're acting surprised the Cardinals aren't very good. Why?
It's ok to move on from Mo any day now.

Been posting about this for YEARS!

BDWJr could've fired Mo years ago but he didn't as long as 3+M were filling his coffers.

LMAO
I get that MO had to be replaced which they did.
Now the new guy seems to have them on the right path?
But I hear you....not defending MO in any way but the continued obsession with him is weird.
Does he have “666” on his scalp somewhere???

We've had some very bad drafts earlier this decade. the M.O. was to take unrisky picks that they didn't have to overpay and yet even with JJW we didn't go over slot so could have been more agressive in the later rounds than we were.
