    Did John Farrell used to be Blue Jays manager during Anthopoulos years at Toronto?

    I wouldn’t expect AA to immediately come in and start wheeling and dealing. I’m sure he’s going to need some time to familiarize him with what’s in the cupboard (and wait to see what MLB takes away).

    With that said, in time we are going to get a real unbiased analysis of these prospects.

    Of all the realistic scenarios we’ve seen floated around, this is the best one...by far.

    This is terrific. Hendry would have been a nightmare. Hart is not the devil/anti new age guy, that clearly is and as been JS. Hart can stick around playing golf and thwarting JS as long as he wants.

    You have to think spending time with the Dodgers that he saw the benefits of using sabermetrics.

    This hiring should make Harry happy. The one GM most likely to pull off the crazy 13 player deals he suggests is now in charge.

    Reports I’ve seen from other fans, the other writers, all have him as analytically inclined, as well as Minasian, who is his former scouting director, and now sit us.

    We've got ourselves a Jim Hendry fan, I see.
