October 18, 20205 yr I admit I don't get it, but I guess this was always the plan. Interesting to see who they get in place of him. Thanks for all the years, Mr. Hill.

October 18, 20205 yr Author In all seriousness. Do you think Denbo gets this spot? Do we maybe try and pry someone from elsewhere? Do we bring back Larry Beinfest? I hope Jeff Luhnow is nowhere near the radar. His one year suspension from the Astros situation will be up soon.
October 18, 20205 yr Author Just now, SonOfJack said: Old friend Dombrowski is also out there. Honestly, no thanks. He'll do whatever he can to win now and that includes depleting farm systems. Look at the Tigers and Red Sox.

October 18, 20205 yr Whatever we do, we need to do it quick. We have to be involved in the off-season and can't let a GM/president of ops search drag on.

October 18, 20205 yr Quote As for Hill's future, he's from Cincinnati and has been mentioned as a possible replacement for former Reds GM Dick Williams, who recently resigned. RotoWorld

October 18, 20205 yr Who is gonna do this job? Definitely next "GM" will be served as a puppet for CEO Jeter.
October 18, 20205 yr Just now, Bret Hart said: Who is gonna do this job? Definitely next "GM" will be served as a puppet for CEO Jeter. A guy like Theo Epstein for instance would never take the gig under that setup. If that is how things would continue to run, Jeter's choices will be limited.
October 18, 20205 yr Everything we have heard about the decision making process of the marlins front office tells me that the hire whomever they are will need to fill in as a cog, not as a true authority figure. My picks would be either Barry Newell from the Rays organization, or Jean Afterman from the Yankees. Both are highly qualified, and bring a lot of information to the table. Neither would be expected to be a general administrator, but rather a clear authority in a particular area of need.
