The Cardinals' front office is on the clock.
A baseball season that has offered fans and followers of the team mixed messages multiple times has taken a turn for the worse. If this low point is going to be remembered as a launching pad instead of the beginning of the end of optimism for 2021, the path toward redemption will need to be paved by the determination and dedication of Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt Jr., president of baseball operations John Mozeliak, general manager Michael Girsch and their fellow front-office decision makers.
Mozeliak has said the organization doesn’t feel comfortable rushing young pitchers such as Matthew Liberatore and Zack Thompson to the majors as potential stopgaps to the pitching crisis the Cardinals confidently insisted they could avoid but did not.
