Most of the moves he makes actually make sense, and he had the right strategy for winning in this division (cheap pitching and defensive upgrades). There are quite a few other GMs in the league that are just complete idiots (ie. Dayton Moore).<br /><br />Honestly, there's a lot of potential for us to hire an even worse GM when he's gone.Brad Fullmer Fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16725573076197297449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-2546891855111287902009-09-25T14:59:28.024-04:002009-09-25T14:59:28.024-04:00I don't love JP, but I doubt his successor wil...<i>I don't love JP, but I doubt his successor will do any better if the only thing that changes is the GM. Bring back Gord Ash!</i><br /><br />But don't we already know that's not the case? I thought that a big part of the reason JP was expected to be fired was because Beeston will presumably be naming his successor, who will then bring in his own GM. I'd like to see Cito gone as much as anybody else, but we're also getting a new president, so we can at least be sure it's not <i>just</i> going to be a new GM coming in.Tyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11878921441543129555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-7268050471175992492009-09-25T13:32:23.856-04:002009-09-25T13:32:23.856-04:00JET!
