Title: Chicago Cubs GM Position is Open
Post by: shooter47 on October 01, 2013, 12:52:46 PM: Kris Doughery (KDoc09) has resigned from his position as GM of the Cubs. It is unfortunate to see such a talented and long standing GM, been with FGM since November of 2010, resign from his position. I am beginning the search for a new GM for the :CHC:. I would like to have someone in place before the Offseason FA period starts. If any of you know someone who may be interested in the Position please have them send me a PM or let me know who they are.

Please apply here for the Chicago Cubs GM Position if you are interested.

Thanks,

Shooter

Post by: jpmanchester on December 03, 2013, 11:17:20 PM: Hi, I'd like to put my name in the hat for consideration for the Cubs GM job. I've played fantasy baseball for about 15 years now. I'm new to ProFSL and FGM, but have managed in leagues on all sorts of other sites/forums. I spend far too much time online so am very active and always checking boards and looking for ways to improve my team.

A bit about how I like to manage.... The Cubs roster looks like it should be a fun one to take over if that works out. The previous GM has built up and extended a solid core to build around with Strasburg, Cain, Darvish, McCann, a decent prospect group, etc. So there's some great assets to work with. I like a little more flexibility in my teams though, so would likely be looking to move a few of the other larger contracts (Bay, Ramirez, Phillips, a few guys like that) in favor of more balance and depth. I'm always looking to build a balanced roster and prospect team believing contributions from unknown guys, prospects, and solid-not-star guys are just as key as those 5-7 studs a winning team needs. I spend a lot of time browsing other teams rosters trying to find trades that fit both teams, and am always willing to listen to offers and negotiate if there's value for both sides.

Bit long winded.... but wanted to give ya bit of background since I don't have a history on this site yet. Thanks for the consideration.

Jpmanchester is the only person to submit an applicant for the open Chicago Cubs position. I have sent a couple of PM's to jpmanchester to discuss the league and think he would be a good addition to the league. I am officially nominating him to take the GM position of the Chicago Cubs.

Thanks,

Shooter
