Chicago Cubs: Jed Hoyer to New York unlikely, but it would hurt if it happened

Would Chicago Cubs general manager and executive vice president Jed Hoyer actually leave the team for a position with a lesser organization?

Tuesday, MLB Network insider and New York Post columnist Joel Sherman reported that there is buzz around Hoyer’s name (among others) for the New York Mets’ general manager vacancy.

“Cubs GM Jed Hoyer, Indians GM Mike Chernoff and Brewers GM David Stearns all have had buzz around them, but there are questions if any would leave good situations. Of the group, perhaps Stearns — from New York and in his early professional years a Mets front-office employee — would be most interested, but there is strong belief Brewers owner Mark Attanasio would not let him out of his contract to pursue the opportunity.
