Somewhere along the way he became timid and overly patient. Now the organization has some serious issues. I will tell anybody that will listen that i think 3 things happen that changed MO. 1) the death of Oscar Tavares. Which forced him to trade for Heyward. That deal was ok. 2) The Ozuna trade showed how their internal evaluations were awful. 3) The firing of Mike Shildt. Somewhere the organization put themselves into a box with singular ideas.
The attendance at Busch shows its time for a fresh start.
Interesting perspective.

The Matt Carpenter extension was GM malpractice.
