In the latest article by Katie Woo regarding MLB winter meetings and the St. Louis Cardinals, the president of baseball operations, John Mozeliak, said this:

We have every intention of fielding a good baseball team. It’s going to have a different profile, but we still have a lot of belief that some of our younger players will take that next step forward. We’re excited about what we have. Now, it is Dec. 5, and things can happen and things can change. But we’re still going into (next season) with optimism that it’ll be a fun baseball team to watch.

This is unintentionally one of the funniest, tone-deaf things I’ve ever read. It begs the question, “Does Mo really think Cardinals fans are stupid?”

Look, I get it. He has to say something to try and get people to come to the games. I mean, they aren’t going to come to the games, especially when they are double digits out of first place in the friggin' National League Central. It won’t be a fun baseball team to watch. It just won’t be.

Maybe I’ll eat those words and this collection of youngsters Major League the hell out of the season. I doubt it.
