This is false. the Cardinals have to be at the bottom of the league when it comes to talent evaluation and the good players we draft do exponentially better once they get away from this organization.

I think we have done a bad job at evaluating talent in trades recently. I didn't see Alcantara doing so well after we traded him because of his meh minor league numbers but he has really taken it to the next level. Gallen performed well for us in the minors and we then traded him in the Ozuna deal. Randy did well in the minors for us when we traded him for Liberatore. Other than that those 3 big names I can't name anyone else that the Cardinals would regret trading away. My biggest issue is the major league team and their issues at keeping players consistent. Seems like there is a breakout candidate every year that then shits the bed the following year. O'Neil, Dejong, Flaherty, Carlson, Donovan right now, etc..... All of these guys have had good to great years but we fail to get consistent productions out of them either through injuries or the league adapting to them. Plus we haven't really focused on pitching recently so that has been another big weakness for us.
Not the worst idea given the fact that their season is already over in May.
I already know that if we DFA Hicks, the dodgers/rays would pick him up and he would become a stud closer for them. Can we just steal some of their guys?

1st and 2nd, two outs, full count so the runners get a head start, Noot plugs the gap with what should easily score both runners and tie the game but the ball hops over the wall and only one run scores, Cards fail to bring in the other run and still trail. Such a brutal break.

Oh but they can. Analytics said to pull our starter after 89 pitches and to put in Jordan Hicks with a 3-2 lead. Great managing!!!
"we will field the worst team in franchise history and still keep our jobs cause we will still draw 3 million sheep"
We would get a pick after the Competitive Balance round B which comes after the 2nd round

The people in charge of this organization have lost their f***ing minds.
Was just about to post this. They’re cooked. Need a “sim to end of season” button.
Right now I am on the copium that the season will be so bad for us they will have a huge front office change and rethink their whole philosophy. The most likely option is the season continues and they fire Marmol but keep Mo and do the same thing over and over again

There’s a clip from Black Lagoon (obviously not postable on this forum due to the content of the video) where the Russian Mafiya queen Balalaika says, “Somebody shoot me,” with this utterly dead look in her eyes. That’s me with the Cardinals at the moment.
