Depending on who you listen to, Walt Jocketty has resigned/been let go/been forced out/been fired as general manager of the St. Louis Cardinals.
Bad news for the Cards. Good news for any other team looking to build a winner.
All Jock did in St. Louis was help build a club that won six division titles, a wild card berth, two National League pennants, and one World Series championship.
Through various trades, free agent signings, and waiver wire moves, he signed the likes of Mark McGwire, Will Clark, Jim Edmonds, Jason Isringhausen, Larry Walker, Chris Carpenter, Scott Rolen and David Eckstein, all fan favorites in St. Louis and critical players who have made the Cards’ recent success possible.
Happy trails, Jock. You will be missed.
