To answer your 1st question yes. Now that the newness of Schildt has worn off we see the same type of baseball that got MM fired. MO must go, but won't matter if DeWittt continues to tie the GMs hands. I don't want to hear how they were all in on Stanton. They knew he wasn't going to sign with them from the get go. Mad Max would be a Cardinal today if they weren't so tight. But hey we got mid tier guys like Cecil and FowlerThe Brewers made trades for Yelich, Shaw, Hader, and Moustakas, signed Cain, Aguilar. They are committed to winning. We get Memphis' team, Fowler, injured 0zuna, Cecil and Padre reject Ross. Its nothing but pinching pennies.
Now we went the cheapest route on a manager with zero experience before he even finished this season. Things may work out wonderfully but do we always have to go the cheapest route on every damn move?
You'd rather have Scherzer than those two???But hey we got mid tier guys like Cecil and Fowler
