We break down John Mozeliak's final press conference as President of Baseball Operations, held on September 29, 2025, marking the end of his 18-year tenure with the St. Louis Cardinals. Mo reflected on his legacy, expressing no regrets and optimism for the team's future under incoming leader Chaim Bloom, while addressing key decisions like roster moves and the organization's direction. We dive into his candid thoughts on stepping down, the highs of building championship-caliber teams, and the challenges faced in recent years. We also take a deep dive into the 2025 season—a frustrating 78-84 campaign that saw the Cardinals finish fourth in the NL Central, missing the playoffs for the third straight year.
