Most GMs or all get fired and many if not most have a worse record than Bow tie. Hard to average 90 for many years unless you are the Yankees.
Why are you so resistant to change?

Why do you think the Cardinals model was fine even after the Cardinals said their model was completely broken and needed to be reset?

I anticipate Bloom/ Cerfolio to run the organization quite differently.
Based on Bloom’s past stops, I feel he will be more active in trades.
Also , think in rebuilding the roster minor leaguers will be promoted faster .
More technology that Mo was hesitant to do.
A new Cardinal Way !
He has no choice. Taking on bloated contracts in exchange for prospects isn't viable. Only if they get a better TV deal will we return to those days.

I believe they'll start to trade guys a "year too early" as opposed to a "year too late".

I don't have much to base this on, just speculation.
