So, not to get too caught up in titles, but previously Mike Elias was the only Executive Vice President.  Bader was a Senior Vice President, which is a lower title.  Now Bader is Chief Operating Officer, which in most corporate parlance is a higher title than Executive Vice President.  And, the new PR guy has an Executuve VP title, which is equal to Elias’.   Seems to me this should be the time to elevate Elias to President of Baseball Operations and bestow EVP titles on Sig Mejdal and Eve Rosenbaum.   Or maybe John Angelos doesn’t realize that the quality of the baseball team, not PR, drives the value of his business.  

Lots of companies have lots of vice President titles. That’s not unusual.

Plus it’s different parts of the organization.

Red Sox just fired their President of baseball Operations. Now is the time to promote before the O's get poached

Hopefully he lasts longer then Vidalin lasted. Not sure what this means for Cal Perry? On the organization leadership chart ,Bader is listed right below Elias,could change. Dealt with Bader a few times and not impressed.His son is nice though.

Dumb question, but does it matter what the baseball people's titles are? Would their job descriptions change at all? 

The one silver lining I can see here is that it seems even more clear of a signal that they just need to finish dotting the i's on the lease agreement.

    • See, you just can't help yourself.  You gotta get personal haha.  Never fails.  I see that a lot on internet message boards and to me it is always a sign of weakness and/or they have no argument.    Be better. 
    • ESPN (Kiley McDaniel) provides notes and re-rank of his top50.  Note that he removes players who have already lost or projected to lose eligibility in next week or so (meaning no guys like Cowser on O’s or Langford on TEX).  Link to post (note is behind paywall). Holliday #2 and 65 FV tier (along w/Skenes who jumped to #1 overall) Mayo #6 and 60 FV tier Basallo #16 and 55 FV tier Kjerstad #47 and 50 FV tier Fangraphs (Eric Longenhagen) provides update to his top100.  Unlike Kiley/ESPN, this list does not yet reflect any changes or projected changes to rookie eligibility (ie guys like Langford and Chourio are still in the top100 list).  Link to top100 list and his separate write up post. Holliday #1 Basallo #9 Mayo #22 Kjerstad #26 Povich #92
    • Exactly, your point about his upside is one of reasons I advocate him to play CF . And yes our personnel has an opening at CF . Jackson is 20 now and still at AAA . What better time to start crash course on CF than now ?
    • I don't disagree but they've been extraordinarily fortunate w/ their contact. Feels a little like the 2014 Royals series..... everything's a hit.
    • This is crazy to me.  Holliday has shown 29 fps sprint speed in a very short stint up, which is plus-plus speed.  Sprint speed doesn't even peak until like 23 or 24, so he might go even higher.  Sprint speed is one of the universal hallmarks of raw athleticism and a Holliday is really fast.   The argument for athleticism applies doe people like Juan Soto, who is a once-in-a-generation hitter but appears to be pretty mediocre as an athlete by MLB standards.  There's no way Holliday fits that description.   And if athleticism benchmarks are too specialized, just look at his defense.  He's rated at +2 at 2b in only 2 weeks by OAA, and he hasn't even looked his best.  A mediocre athlete wouldn't be able to handle the dynamic movements of a MI position the way Holliday has.
    • Glad to see Kjerstad getting another start tonight.
    • My first 2 choices to trade would be Holliday and Heston of the guys who really haven't played on the Os much yet.  I think you could get almost whatever you want for Holliday (big time starter) and add in a couple of pieces with Heston and get 2 really good relievers.    And before you ask me who?  We have all seen the names on here but guys on other teams are really not by forte.  I will leave that to the experts.  Anyway..... Bingo, your pitching staff is much better.  You can win a WS this year and have pitching for next year.  All without hurting the team this year and maybe not even next. BTW in this scenario I resign Santa in place of Heston.
