Re: How Would You Rate O'Brien's First Year As GM?
Quote:
Still, I don't think you could find anyone that expected Haynes to be remotely close to respectable, coming off that horrible year, bad back, and reporting to spring training out of shape. The scary thing is that if there wasn't so much pressure from the media, Haynes would probably stayed on the roster longer. DanO would've scored a couple points if he had left Haynes in Florida permanently. He shouldn't have to ask permission to cut Haynes if he's just going to call up someone making the minimum. He might have to ask permission, but he shouldn't be micromanaged to that level.
