Some GM info I got from Adam Caplan on twitter

How on earth can any of you know who is a good or bad gm hire. I can't imagine being that much of a geek

The reason I don't want Beane here is because I want a fresh set of eyes driving the car. This team needs some fresh perspective from the GM position.

According to you?

Good to know.

I don't know if Beane is a good prospect or not. But Hurney was his mentor so Beanes perspective will have a lot of Hurney in it. Right or wrong, I'm tired of the same old stuff from our GM spot and I fear that is what Beane would bring.

Caplan said so himself he doesn't think Beane is qualified, we need a new set of eyes to change this damn franchise around. Beane has been around Hurney waaaaaaaaay too much, to not be bias towards certain players.

    • Anybody got a clue what this is supposed to mean? 🤔
    • I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.
    • I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
