Opposite. I’m eager to see a new system in place and see if it produces. I find risk exciting.

Last year was the most pointless season in the history of the franchise.

Hasn't been a Cardinals season since I was a little guy I wasn't excited for, this one is no different. :D

Just seeing if jjw can actually make it in The Bigs and be a good hitter is enough to keep me interested.

Hey, new grass on the field.

It’s not truly a new system while we have Oli and his awful coaches.

I’d be a lot more excited if we’d replace them.

Same here, eager to see the new system and how the team comes together. Still looking for 80-85 wins
