Do that, BDWIII. Do EXACTLY that. Spend less and then blame the fans for not responding to your shitty product, open antagonism and general apathy towards putting as much as an entertaining product on the field, let alone a championship caliber one. Go ahead and give Mozeliak and Marmol another extension while you're at it. Double-down, silver-spoon window-licker. This is so far beyond Mozeliak and Marmol at this point. When you look at the change-over in leadership at the ownership level, when BDWII turned things over to III, it becomes so obvious what happened here. And when you listen to III speak, it's so clear how little he gives a shit about baseball. When he starts talking money, he's douchey, but he's cogent. But the last interview I heard from him where he tried to talk baseball he actually said "We wanted to re-sign some of our own guys; like the guy we traded for.....uh....guy who went to the Mets and got hurt..." You forgot Jose Quintana's name, asshole? The Cardinals President simply doesn't give a shit about baseball and it's really REALLY obvious. It's become more and more apparent to me over the last 18 months or so that the real problem is BDWIII. His open contempt for fans and apathy for the product on the field has driven all of this. |

Bill DeWitt III took over as President from Mark Lamping in 2008. Rumors are that BDWII started to pull back from any real role in the organization around 2013/2014 and that's really when things started to fall to shit. Inertia kept the wheels on for a bit but that's all that was.
This collapse has come pretty much entirely under the watch of BDWIII. As you start to dig a bit, HE'S the problem. |
