“Bloom is trading for players I’ve never heard of and don’t know anything about! That means the trades are bad!”

We (drat) sure are not getting top prospects

How many times have the Cardinals top prospects worked out? When was the last time their 1st round pick became a true start? Ted Simmons?

The Sonny Gray trade was a good bet. If May plays well, we might be able to flip him at the deadline for a top prospect.

I would say philosophically going from a stance of attracting Hall of Fame bound managers to in-house options, with zero qualifying credentials because the nerds in the boxes arrogant thought they knew better, was more likely the problem.

Again, we used to go after guys like Whitey, Joe Torre, & Tony LaRussa. Then, we strayed away from Terry Francona for HS Coaches, guys who never played professionally, and whatever you want to consider Oli Marmol.

Francona, who had multiple World Series titles under his belt and today is only 66, would go onto manage the Indians through one of Cleveland’s best periods of baseball. In his first year w/the Reds, he steered them into the playoffs after their worst stretch as a franchise, where they missed the playoffs 10/11 years

10 years ago, they won 100 Games. Then they’d add Paul Goldschmidt who had a spectacular career including a MVP, Nolan Arenado for a sack of potatoes, and even bring back Albert Pujols for one of the most epic send-offs in baseball history.

Are you trying to suggest that you predicted COVID, too? The season before COVID struck saw them in the NLCS, losing to the eventual World Series Champion.

I wasn’t the one trying to claim the franchise was being ruined ahead of a 100-win campaign. Maybe you should have cherry-picked your data better?

They are no longer a major league organization. They are the Pirates in St. Louis.

This team has not won a second round playoff game in like nine years…… But yeah, everything is just fine…… Gotta love a loser mentality
