There are numerous ways to be good as a baseball organization. The Dodgers rarely make development mistakes, and have plenty of money to spend. For nearly a century, the Cardinals effectively pushed an envied talent pipeline. The Rays assess other teams' pipelines very well. The Cleveland organizagion has gotten scary-good at pitcher development. The Astros seemingly developed terminology and technology to assess what used to be considered random. The Cubs have shrubbery on the walls. Perhaps the reason Jed Hoyer's General Manager position is open is because nobody qualified wants it.
I was expecting an outcry against the Yu Darvish trade return.
