Who should Jed Hoyer choose as Cubs general manager from among 4 reported finalists?
Marquee Sports Network Saturday, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney posted this article at The Athletic in which they noted that Cubs President of Baseball Operations Jed Hoyer had narrowed his search for his general manager to four finalists.
If you think the GM job doesn’t matter, I’ll strongly disagree. When Theo Epstein left the Cubs, he indicated that Hoyer had been involved in nearly every major player acquisition decision, had driven some (the Jake Arrieta trade, notably) and vehemently disagreed with others (reportedly, the Jose Quintana trade).
