Interesting to me and maybe no one else but it certainly appeared that once upon a time, Bill DeWitt felt like he had to make a choice between 2 highly thought of executives, one being John Mozeliak and the other being Jeff Luhnow.
It appeared that the easier choice was Mozeliak because Luhnow may have been more difficult to get along with (i.e., control) so Luhnow, Elias and Mejdal left St Louis for Houston.
Meanwhile, Mozeliak has made one poor decision after another leading the Cards from an extremely well run team to it's current trainwreck status.
