ST. LOUIS, MO (Mike Bauer, KMOV-TV. Please click on the link above for the full story and the press conference. Here is an excerpt below.)
Friday, the Cardinals officially announced the promotion of John Mozeliak to President of Baseball Operations Friday, and named Mike Girsch the new General Manager.
Mozeliak had served as GM since 2007, overseeing the team’s most recent World Series championship and the National League pennant win in 2013. During his 10 seasons as GM, the Cardinals have the second best winning percentage (.558) in baseball.
Girsch was promoted from Assistant General Manager, a position he’s held since 2011 and the post Mozeliak held before his elevation to GM. He was hired in 2006 and became the key man in the organizations analytics department before rising higher through the ranks of the front office.
