And what exactly makes you think that you, who unlike Aramis has no personal exposure to Major League general managers, think that you do know about GMing an MLB team?

Yup; I can’t imagine a situation where this isn’t Jim’s last stand if the Cubs don’t make, and win in, the playoffs.

Aramis knows as much about GMing an MLB team as I know about how to hit a 95MPH inside fastball 400 feet over the Wrigley wall.

Still, I’m glad as heck that he loves Jimbo. We got a genuine “hometown discount” when he signed his big multi-year deal; he almost certainly could have hauled in millions (tens of millions ?) more if he’d played the market.

That said, Jim better start rubbing his lucky rabbit’s foot this winter. He’s got some serious work to do.
