I think he had other suitors. How could he think working under Jerry and Kenny would work out well. Hahn is not suited for sports. He would make a fine senior executive in a Fortune 100 company. All that education is going to waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an organizational issue though, just like so many other things. I would expect nothing else with the current roster. it why it's called a rebuild.

So you say that to say what - given what we have now ? Kenny-Hahn have been at it for years? Would you hire either of them to run your organization ? I sure wouldn't Edited August 14, 2019 by GradMc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Astros could have only dreamed to have Sale, Q and Eaton to trade. It’s really not a good comparison. I can’t imagine how bleak it would be without those assets to jump start things.

Sad that a charter member of MLB has to take a back seat to anyone. Teams should be aspiring to emulate us. Gotta have the right ownership with the vision and financial where-with-all to get it done. Astros would be the first place I would look for a president of baseball operations. You are correct, but it will NEVER HAPPEN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Sox have zero in common with the astros, there drafting has been horible, there signing of international players except for robert has been garbage, and they have shown no ability to find talent from other teams.

Given that Aiken never did anything and has battled injuries, I think they made the correct choice there. Idk how they messed up on Appel/Bryant.
