Show Notes

The Cardinals are in denial. They insist they're not rebuilding. Except that they are rebuilding, and still can't play it straight with the fans. It's strange. And that's not all.

Not only is John Mozeliak staying in the role of president for baseball operations in 2025, he's also taking over the GM position after the Cardinals moved GM Michael Girsch to another role. (VP of special projects, whatever that is.) All along, we thought there was a chance of Chaim Bloom being promoted to president of baseball ops immediately, in place to chart plans for the team's 2025 season.

Instead, Bloom will spend 2025 immersed in the massive restoration project of the team's minor-league and player development system -- and then he'll succeed Mozeliak as the head of the baseball department following the 2025 season.

The Cardinals have tested their fans' patience -- again! -- by keeping the highly unpopular Mozeliak in charge. And now they've doubled down on Mozeliak, approving of his plan to also serve as the GM to go along with his other job. The Cardinals are still in denial about Mozeliak's low approval rating ... and this figures to cost them even more business in 2025.
