Classic.

Mo's a wuss. He was unwilling to make a deal when the Cardinals had a chance.

I bet Tony leaves for the Reds and a GM with an idea of how to build a winner.

I'm dissapointed but not surprised. Mo is living off the remnants of Jocketty and will soon be exposed for the Asst. GM he is.

AAAARGH

But we got Carp without giving up anything!

In all seriousness I can't fault Mo for inaction. Seems the price was high and stayed high for just about everyone worth anything. Who went? Let's see:

Ken Griffey
Manny
Jason Bay (as part of Manny trade)
Arthur Rhodes

The big trades (Sabathia and Harden) happened weeks ago. And the Pudge deal yesterday was IMO bigger than either of the trades today.

Market didn't bear a lot of movement, which is the opposite of what all the experts were clamouring for.

I am afraid this is the beginning of a looong playoff draought for the Cardinals.

Walt hasn't made a major mid-season acquisition since 2004.

Oh brother......... here we go.

All the makings of a CT thread.
