I’m not giving Posey the PoBO a pass, but I think the ownership group is way more of an issue (which includes Posey the owner).

I don’t think anyone reasonably expected Mahle, Houser and Bader to drastically change the club, which at first falls on Posey the PoBO for taking those half assed measures.

But if ownership decided that after Posey spending heavily on Chapman, Adames and Devers, all he could do in FA was get short-contract, lower-salary guys… then he was totally hamstrung. A lot of IF’s, I know, and a lot of bad outcomes everywhere but in the Minors where we’re crushing it (some hope?). I just don’t know how much of all that falls on ownership and how much falls on the PoBO
