Tonight’s Sports Open Line is abridged again due to a SLU Billikens men’s basketball game!  Kevin Wheeler talks about John Mozeliak’s comment on Paul DeJong:

“I feel like Paul DeJong is not getting a fair shake with what he’s done. No one is arguing that he did not get untracked this year. But I think it’s a bit unfair not to have some optimism for his future based on the past.” — Mozeliak

From Wheeler’s Twitter: “I don't agree with the sentiment as it was expressed, DeJong's struggles extend further back than 2020 or 2021, but let's not work ourselves up. There are a lot of ways to improve this team for 2022. Let's see how it plays out.”  Wheeler also discusses the St. Louis Blues’ Jake Neighbors being sent back to the minors.
