"I got a lot of good help. (Director, Baseball Operations) Matt Klentak was tremendous. He's so smart when it comes to, you know, how to discuss certain parts of contracts and things that came up. Matt just did a great job.

Interesting comments from Jordan. It sounds like he and Klentak were the ones directly negotiating with the players and agents.

JJ is always giving praise to others and I am sure it is deserved in this case. Juggling three contracts in a five or so hour period has to involve multiple folks on the Os side and it sounds like Klentak provided strong assistance.

If AM were to leave, could Klentak possibly replace him?

I think Jordan is a good scouting director in terms of locating talent. He seems to be excellent when it comes to negotiating with these guys. He never lets them see him sweat and seems to always get his guy.

Props to Jordan, Klentak and the team. Got the trifecta and signed another overslot as well. Now let's hope they chose wisely.
