I don't see a path this hire being around for our next playoff team. There is going to be so much losing in the near future, I just hope for someone who can develop and keep people healthy.
I will be honest, I don't know that I can bring myself to really care enough to be upset/excited about who we hire here. I think the one thing I am looking for is maybe a sign that Getz is free of his octogenarian overlords. If he bring in Skip Shumaker, it tells me that Tony is probably the guy running the show to some extent.
He also talks about how to fix Pallette
