Toronto looking for New President to be Duquette.

[atomic]

Rosenthal and Reynolds talking about DD on MLB Network. Basically Reyonolds saying he would be upset if he were an Orioles fan with all the inactivity. Rosenthal says clearly DD is not engaged in the offseason.

At this point DD better hope he gets the Blue Jays job because he is pretty much has as much chance of getting a job within baseball as Ray Rice has toe become the head of NOW.

Who is the person in charge of coming up with the players the Orioles would want in any trade with the BJ's?

[Nevermore]

:agree:

Can we just create a petition and forward it to the Law offices of Peter G Angelos?

Maybe Duquette should be kicked upstairs. With an empty desk. And hand over the real GM doings to whoever would be his successor.

Thanks for helping Ken!

That's to be expected from him, lobbying for Toronto as he has done the entire time. Olney worked here also, but Buster doesn't have a big chip on his shoulder.

I've made my feelings about Ken being a punk instead of a respected journalist well known.

Well, he is right. Giving up a top prospect for an executive, WOWZZA

I think I would have given up a top prospect to get DD to begin with knowing how much he has helped the club. Giving up Bundy would have been worth going to the playoffs twice and having 3 winning seasons.

Give up a top prospect(s) to not be deposed on tampering charges when they can assume that Duquette was forthright about any contact when asked by his employer, the attorney.

[baltfan]

PA should absolutely continue to hold out at least for Hoffman. DD will do the job if he stays. He has a 4 years left on his contract, if he does a crappy job the next 4 years there won't be any job out there. He has to understand PA's frustration with the combination of the timing and how this went down.

As for what other GMs and managers have netted in terms of a trade, show me one that had 4 years left on his contract for a good price. Bryce Harper is worth more in a trade than someone with similar skills who is a year shy of free agency. The same can be said of DD.

That's what I assumed. Thanks.

Actually, in his zeal to hate on Baltimore, Rosenthal has actually harmed Toronto, IMO. This has reached the proportions it has because of Rosenthal. The tampering by Toronto has inadvertently been made obvious by Rosenthal. The high compensation being discussed is, in large part, because of Rosenthal's big mouth. His opinion isn't going to affect Ed Rogers' lust for DD, but it will work up the Toronto fans into an even bigger furor. Keep up the good work, Ken. :laughlol:

Ken's bias has been showing through in how he answers questions & how he words his tweets. He's holding on to some serious dislike for the O's organization. And if they offer Hoffman, I think we will take it.

Ken is misguided. He thinks bow ties look good on men not named Orville Redenbacher.

On #Orioles’ Duquette, rival exec asks: “If #BlueJays think he is a difference-maker, why not trade top prospect for him?” Fair question.
