My personal feelings about AP aside, if you think the Cardinals owning that contract would be a good thing for them, you are delusional. It would not only have prevented the signing of several key players, it would have required you to play a cripple at first base. And since we don't have a DH, he would have actually been sitting 40-60 games a year or more. For all of Mo's issues right now, that is one very good non-signing. I simply can't see how having that albatross hanging around their neck is a good thing. Because he might bop 20 or 30 HR's a year?
Take down the AP Fathead poster, rework the AP shrine into something new and get over him. He's washed up and the Cardinals got 80% of what he had to give...
Oh, and this current team really only has a few holes they need to fill. The big issue is not talent. It is a culture of bad, sloppy, poor fundamental baseball. The coaches and the players have created this culture. And that kind of baseball ALWAYS loses more than it wins. Until the culture changes, the losing will continue... That is on Matheny far more than Mo. And rest assured, Mo does not have the authority to replace him. That call has to come from the top... MM is DeWitt's boy...
