Season over.

[TheHeathen]

I'm glad. I think he is an outstanding GM. Just leave him and his to do their thing.

you wouldn't have said that last year.

[ELEVEN]

Good. Stay the course and get this thing fixed. We have the right people in the FO.

[ettin]

Very pleased to hear this, I think Jerry's doing a pretty good job of rebuilding this team and I think he'll make some smart deadline moves no matter whether we are contending or out of it.

anyone who wants to dump Dipoto should just focus their attention on nascar

a good general manager will bring players that fits manager‘s style, jd is probably the only person on earth that doesn't know sosh likes to play aggressive baseball, look at all those turtles he had brought over. ...

This renewal is a tacit confirmation of what many on this forum have believed all along -- that the franchise's most disastrous moves over the last few years, such as signing Josh Hamilton, were done directly by Arte Moreno, not by Jerry Dipoto.

Oh and I forget to mention they don't play defense either

[Sherlock31]

Name me one jd‘s player that made a huge lmpact on offense last year?

[VariousCrap]

I'm glad.  I like Jerry.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

I'm a Dipoto fan, and I take this as very positive news.

Pujols, Ianetta, Calhoun promoted from the minors, David Freese in the 2nd half. Even Hamilton was 114 OPS+ player between DL stints.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Love it. Elevates the chances Scioscia won't be back.

[Blarg]

Scioscia isn't going anywhere.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Scioscia isn't going anywhere.

Probably not, however one would assume that their relationship isn't the greatest. Sosh could opt out. You never know.

[seenoevil]

hell yeah!

 

war Jerry!

 

Welcome back!

i reject the premise. the gm is either the gm or he's not the gm. i might except the premise if dipoto was a new hire, but he's been here for years.

Solid detective work, Sherlock

Next yr is yr 4 of the JD era right?

Apparently, some here think the re-building of a farm system can be done with a sack of magic beans.  The long term health of the organization was largely agreed to by people with a brain.  Given the salary constraints of some questionable LT signings have been overlooked.  In short, it will take time for the pigs to get through the python.  

 

Next year will be a monumental year to reconstruct the major league team with so many contracts expiring.  Just sit on your nests, ladies.

 

Next year will be a year for you to make your call.
