and because Mo wanted everyone comfortable. We are locked into $270+ million worth of contracts of aging and underperforming players. He achieved his goal of making them fat, happy and comfortable. AND since his outdated strategy has failed AND he is not adapting, despite his making money hand over fist for Dewitt, the owner has to step up and save his club from further embarrassment. [Reply]
Cards have more international bonus pool money than anyone, finished "just out of the running" for Jasson Dominguez (stunning), and now have used almost none of it.
Fuck Mo to death with a barbed wire- covered fence post. [Reply]

Throw dart, draw bullseye around it.
Moe is better than anyone you'll ever see at knowing just how far to go to come up short.
The guy is just fucking trash at all things. [Reply]

When the organization can't be bothered to EVER pursue top 20 international players, they don't run the risk of any future penalties that might diminish their pool. [Reply]

I forgot sometimes that MLB treats the Cardinals like a small market. [Reply]
