Good for him. 50 is too young to be retired at this day and age.

Wow, some come down from GM.

Amaro?s transition from the top of a baseball operations hierarchy to a coaching staff is relatively unprecedented. Earlier this year, Marlins GM Dan Jennings moved from the front office to the dugout, although that was within his own organization after the club had fired skipper Mike Redmond. Amaro, on the other hand, leaves the only organization with which he?s ever been involved in the front office to join the coaching staff of an organization with which he?s never been affiliated.

Weams beat you to the punch but since you put it in the MLB section you get the bump.

I saw that later, I never thought to look in the Oriole section, since it pretty much nothing to do with the Orioles.

The guy is clueless about baseball, so I wonder how he will do at first.

I think he will do fine.

Good move from both sides.
