I don't think you should kick Pace upstairs and install a new GM. It's gonna be just like when we all get mad about a white Sox move and blame KW instead of RH. To me you have to cut ties and move on end let the next guy live and die by his own merit and not have the shadow of Pace looming over him.
that's not to say they won't do that, they probably will because that's a McCaskey thing to do, I just don't agree with it.
