    If I remember correctly, we got the Selig Rule waived when we hired Torre. I know that doesn't mean anything to this hiring, just thought that was interesting.

    They got to work on getting Zack and other FAs. Might want to find someone to show they got someone in mind.

    Maybe Zack will be interested in the job? It would be worth hiring Zack as manager just for the postgame interviews.

    Alex Cora and Dave Martinez should be interviewed as well so the minority thing shouldn't be an issue

    Zack would be a better GM.

    Imagine him at meetings, scaring other GMs into giving up top talent by threatening to murder their families.

    Have to go with Martinez, don't see why Kapler is apparently being seriously considered (not criticizing the poll, I have seen the reports).

    I don't think it has any effect on the odds of signing Greinke. That will come down to management outbidding everyone.

    Loria is an idiot if he thinks DDD can do something with such a young roster.

    Working with young players is not Dummies strength

    Turner was asked for his take on the firing and declined to comment. He did, however, give a signal.
