Mather has mentioned that he wants someone with GM experience. That's all fine and good, but for me I'd prefer if they had experience in a winning organization. Someone who came up through the ranks, or spent significant time in a winning culture. Not someone who worked for the Rockies / Padres / Diamondbacks for years. How would they know what it takes to win?
Shouts
<p>Why does the snippet above say "Experience, by GLS"? I didn't write that.</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 10:57am<br>I think that it automatically puts the name of the person who did the most shouts on the page or was the most active...I have had that happen to me too and then when I am inactive my name is replaced with someone else's...kind of odd.</div>
<p>From what I've read, Jason McLeod seems like the best choice. But what do I know?</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 11:07am<br>there are a few names being thrown around. the main question will be who is up for the challenge and not afraid to mix things up and create a little chaos to get things straightened back to where they can become a club that is consistently good...not consistently bad.</div>
<p>Doesn't DiPoto have a reputation for being good at identifying and developing pitchers but poor at identifying and developing hitters?</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - Browns8625 - 8/31/15 4:27pm<br>That's why we got The Edgar for.. :)</div>
<p>I'm in favor of Jerry DiPoto as the new GM. He switches his teams up until it works. He does not let rookies flounder for months while they figure it out. Also, he has been micromanaged worse than they do in #Seattle.</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 11:05am<br>might be a good fit. there is no use looking for a miracle within this mess. we need someone who is not afraid to get in there and get his hands dirty while sorting through the disaster that has been occurring for the past several years.</div>
<p>23 games lost on the opposition's last at bat. Craziness.</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 11:07am<br>that is painful!</div>
<p>@shannondrayer: #Montgomery down, Guaipe up. #Montgomery close to innings limit and M's need another RHR today. Wilhelmsen & Kensing most likely not available</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - Browns8625 - 8/31/15 4:26pm<br>Starting to give the edge to pitching in the overall worst luck this season. Hitting has been awful, but between injuries and awful pen.. </div><div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 11:08am<br>that about summed it up Browns...they need to do something drastic with the bullpen before anything will even start to change.</div>
<p>I'm a little confused. Why would we start a conversation, pushing the previous conversation off the main page, if we had nothing ot substance to post other than saying we're starting a (new) conversation? </p>
<p>This is not really aimed at you, okdan. I've noticed the admins do this as well. I'm just curious about the perceived purpose in doing it.</p>
<div class="indented">Reply - anonymous - 8/30/15 12:06pm<br>Hey DaddyO - I'm not sure what happened here. I thought I was just posting a couple of regular shouts. The normal interface was gone, and I just typed into the box that popped up... I was hoping the weirdness that I saw was just for me, but it appears that's not the case!
Didn't mean to push everything out. No idea what happened...</div><div class="indented">Reply - DaddyO - 8/30/15 5:43pm<br>Ah, got it. Thanks for the explanation. Like I said, my comments were directed not so much to you as to the phenomenon. At least now we know it happens sometimes when the poster does not intend it.</div><div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 9/1/15 2:45pm<br>the interface seems to be a little touchy lately...don't know if it is just my computer or what but I keep getting script errors and then screen full of code and I have to back out of the wall and then come back in.</div><div class="indented">Reply - mickiholley - 10/23/15 11:09am<br>new conversations will also help if there is any lag within the system. Conversations that are too long tend to pull the whole thing down and cause problems.</div>
