I think it's Mozeliak that elected to prioritize spending on washed up veterans over player development. I think it's Mozeliak that cut Shildt off at the knees. I think it's Mozeliak that has created a culture of smug infallibility throughout the organization that's led to the open antagonism of the fanbase.
Blow-zo should absolutely wear the mess this franchise is in.

I disagree with regards to the spending on washed up players vs player development. Everything else, sure.
I think the DeWitts being afraid of losing at risk of attendance cratering is why they kept throwing money at half-assed solutions to consistently be around 85-88 wins with the hope of catching fire in September and October.
It’s also bullshit that money is being compromised from the big league roster to invest in minor league infrastructure, but that’s a different discussion.
