Mo's a wuss. He was unwilling to make a deal when the Cardinals had a chance.
I bet Tony leaves for the Reds and a GM with an idea of how to build a winner.
I'm dissapointed but not surprised. Mo is living off the remnants of Jocketty and will soon be exposed for the Asst. GM he is.

In all seriousness I can't fault Mo for inaction. Seems the price was high and stayed high for just about everyone worth anything. Who went? Let's see:
Ken Griffey
Manny
Jason Bay (as part of Manny trade)
Arthur Rhodes
The big trades (Sabathia and Harden) happened weeks ago. And the Pudge deal yesterday was IMO bigger than either of the trades today.
Market didn't bear a lot of movement, which is the opposite of what all the experts were clamouring for.

Walt hasn't made a major mid-season acquisition since 2004.
