I'm not a Cardinal fan - but I've always respected them and view them as one of the premiere baseball organizations.
They are better than this - and hopefully it's not what it appears to be.

Whoever did it used a set of passwords that Luhnow left behind when he took the Astros job.

I'll be really surprised if this goes beyond a lone person or couple people in the front office that had some kind of issue with Luhnow. Luhnow was not well received by some within the Cardinals front office when he came in.

I'm no genius, but I don't think I would use a list of passwords that I used with one organization and not use a new set with my new organization; seems like a bad way to do business.

Now I'm not in any way saying that there shouldn't be repercussions against the guilty party(s). I'm just trying to put the "hack" in context.

Sorry - I didn't realize this was in the Redbird Rundown thread.
I guess mods can merge.
