I hope they lose 100 games. It's the only way things are going to change.

Even 90 saves Mozeliak's job - afterall, he just got extended. 100 games HAS to get him canned because the bottom line will feel it. Biggly. And that's all Dewitt cares about.

Sadly, I think it will take losing 100 games two years in a row for significant changes to be made in the front office...and even then only because Dimwit might start to worry about the value being affected.

Hopefully JLM will have his season ending injury soon and if they just keep trotting Matz out there they are almost sure to lose 95. |

Remember when guys used to come here and then blossom? The org used to be able to find guys like Ryan Ludwick and Chris Carpenter off the scrap heap. Now they send out Zac Gallen, Adolis Garcia, and Arozarena to be someone else's All-Stars.

Dewitt’s got this. No worries Cardinal fans. Nothing to see here.
We haven’t had an April like this since (the DeWitt family) has been involved,” Bill DeWitt III said. “It’s a real clunker. You have to go back in history to see months where we’ve been this bad. But again, I think a lot of it, you can explain away. Some of our underlying statistics would indicate that if those (numbers) stay where they are, there ought to be some mean reversion here.” “I still feel really good about the team and roster,” he added. “I mean, you don’t have a situation where there are glaring spots occurring. Of course, you’d love for the pitching to be a little better, but I think you’re just seeing a number of things that appear to be unusual, one-off situations in April. At least I hope so.”

If something isn't working - just hope harder. That's gonna fix it. This entire season was based on precisely that. Mikolas and Wainwright won't age. Matz will suddenly be good. Flaherty will stay healthy and recover stuff he hasn't had for 3 years. Hicks will suddenly start missing bats, Cabrera will find command. The whole damn thing was a total house of cards based on nothing but hope. We've been here. We've seen this. And we had largely started working our way out of it when we fired the guy who objected to maintaining that approach going forward.

Maybe they realized what we all realized years ago, without 100 losses and empty seats, nothing is changing.
