Potential Angels general manager candidates

The Internal CandidatesThe only reason for the Angels to keep the GM job in house is that Dipoto set up an entirely new front office when he came in. While not everything Dipoto did worked out, there is little doubt that he put the farm system back on track after it fell into disrepair under the Reagins regime. By keeping things in house, the Angels get the benefit of continuity whereas an external candidate might decide to blow the whole thing up. OK, maybe it isn’t the only reason. They might just have to hire from within because nobody outside the organization wants the job and the internal candidates don’t realize just how toxic their work environment is.
