Also knowing what happened to Kenny Williams when he wanted to interview with Toronto for a promotion, we all have zero idea if Rick can actually take an interview right now. Quitting won't free him from any non-compete obligations and team control over his future.
He may well want to be here. None of us here have any actual idea what Rick Hahn thinks and that works both ways. A lack of a real media presence doesn't help that. But the reality is that this is way more complex than just walking out on your burger flipping job, especially if you want a future in an industry with only 30 similar choices. It's also worth noting that burning a bridge with JR might be the last thing that Rick Hahn does in this industry. We have seen him repeatedly block people from entering baseball who he feels are not worthy of the game. Why wouldn't he do the same to Rick Hahn if he crossed him?
