It is over, finished, done... Time to look forward to some Blues hockey.
The Cards season can be summed up pretty easy. They had a roster with holes in it all year long, they played as fundamentally poor as you can play in the bigs and they had a bullpen that was grossly ineffective far too many times. This isn't too hard to figure out. If they want to win next year, priority #1 will have to be new leadership. You can put all the talent you want on a team, if the leader isn't a true leader and doesn't demand perfection from his players, they will not succeed. If you can't hold people accountable for their work habits and performance, you can't lead them. Fixing the holes in the roster and the bullpen isn't going to be easy but it really isn't that hard to identify the issues. They just need to avoid fixes like Cecil and Fowler. Heavy price tags and mediocre or worse performances will put you in a hole you can't dig out of...
Let's go Blues!!
