It's simple. DM knows his job is 100% secure, so why make any risky moves when he can take the slow and steady approach and still keep his job almost no matter what? We could lose 100+ for another 2 years and Moore would still not feel the heat. Apparently a single world series wins him a lifetime of goodwill. Meanwhile teams like Boston and Chicago (Cubs) have fired managers or executives soon after championships for not continuing with the same excellence.
