He's not a free agent. Should factor in to next years bullpen plans

Inexcusable! Bloom must be fired immediately. This [shirt] will not be tolerated . Mo can be fired as well.
That is all

I think they should shave MO’s head and look for the “666”!

What? So they can finish 74-88 instead of 70-92?

The last 2 months are gonna get ugly

Hanging onto Romero makes no sense
It does if he doesn't get a good enough return.

I don't know why some of you are so intent on gutting the team. Do you want to watch a team lose 100 games?

Somebody still needs to pitch. Plus he’s under control for next season at a $4-5m Arb number. If you want to compete in 2026, you still need some experience in the bullpen.

They can easily lose 90-95 with this roster

Yeah, I'm about done watching them. I like watching competitive talent but this team just isn't doing it. Their entire philosophy is wrong. When you don't do anything well, you need to rethink your philosophy. Enough with the home run lust. Get hits, steal bases, score. Aim for the hole in the defense, stop trying to jack the ball over the wall. With two strikes make contact. I know it's the unselfish thing to do, but sometimes to excel you have to use small ball.Not by accident, but on purpose. The Brewers have scored 60 more runs than the Cards. Cards are 11 games out. Do the math.

I agree in principle, but after the return on relievers by Mo, it may not have been worth it.
When the Yankees came calling for Helsley, he asked for Spencer Jones in return, as well as other top prospects. Yanks pivoted

Thanks Captain Obvious. They didn't get an rbi guy in the off season and they trotted out rejects and retreads in an attempt to skimp by and save money. Now we see the fruits of their labors, or lack thereof.

That's a very strange take. There's no reason to trade him unless the offer is too good to pass up. He's effective and makes very little.
