I think this comes down to joeshmoe and BHows. People always lose in these application processes, and Rick lost unfairly the last time the Dodgers were open which is why a formal process was put into place.

There is another strong opening for joeshmoe with the Nationals, and he would be the best candidate for that internal transfer.

3 times is correct, and not hogwash. Give me a day since I am at a fundraiser and I will provide the dates of your inactivity for over 30 days on all 3 occasions. You also have behavioral warnings for rude conduct on many occasions toward members of this site. This conduct was done on the boards and via pm. So once again Jeff and Rick have proved a track record of good behavior. Jeff took a bad team and made them winners. You took a bad team and havent improved. So jeff would be more qualified. Once again either way I support Rick to be the next gm. No doubt about it.
