CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Former Indians president Mark Shapiro hasn't even officially started his tenure with the Toronto Blue Jays and fans already have a negative impression.
There's a petition going around that calls for his departure. The negative feelings toward Shapiro began recently when General Manager Alex Anthopoulos decided not to stay in Toronto. Anthopoulos helped build the Blue Jays into a playoff team with shrewd trades and was even named Sporting News Executive of the Year.
Shapiro isn't going anywhere, of course, but he will need to fill the vacant GM position. Could he grab someone from the Indians' front office?
