DPD- I do love how hilariously wrong the author of that article about Jocketty getting fired turned out to be, criticizing the firing of Jocketty due to "meddling ownership" when clearly hiring Mozeliak and Luhnow to fix their farm system and emphasize statistical analysis clearly was the right move as its allowed them to have sustained success to this day.  The fart noise he makes when he dismisses Neal Huntington's chances of rebuilding Pittsburgh is equally amusing.

Also this was fun: Chris Duncan the frontline player. Who was out of baseball two years after this was written.

QuoteOn the other hand, a big part of Jocketty's undoing with DeWitt was the failure of the Cardinals' farm system to develop any pitchers in a decade and only two frontline players, catcher Yadier Molina and outfielder Chris Duncan, in recent years.

At least some (not all, those fun-ruiners) of the Best Fans in Baseball are meeting this news with their trademark level-headedness and perspective.

Quote from: armyofmike
there are some conclusions drawn about the offending person(s)' motivation that are presumptuous at this point.
I don't buy this motive, at least not yet.

Quote from: BigJawnMize
This isnt a Cardinal problem...
...imo.  This is an Astro's problem.

The passwords were probably written into the code of the system. Admin level passwords that would require a programmer to actually change. They were never changed making me believe that the code for "Ground Control" was stolen from the Cardinals to begin with.

Quote from: BigJawnMize
Gawd people are dense....
...what I am saying is when Mejdal or Luhnow left they downloaded the Cardinals code for their software and used it as the basis of Ground Control.

& DARERN WILSOM WAS TH REAL VICTUM!

Oh not a facebook friend. That guy is my Uncle (by marriage) and the worst Cardinals fan of all Cardinals fans. He is the Uber-BFIB. He swallows all of that shit hook, line, and sinker.

Have the Cardinals had his sign-on this whole time? That would explain a lot.

Still looking forward to the Cardinals methocalpyse over here. Also Harold Reynolds thinks the Cubs shouldn't make any moves and should look at competing next year because Reds.

That sure was nice of the ESPN announcers to whitewash the role Oscar Taveras's poor decisionmaking and .287 BAC played in the "tragic" but super inspirational car crash that is directly responsible for Carlos Martinez being so great.
