That's what dipoto is, he's president of baseball operations. Adding more bureaucracy isn't going to mean better decisions. Stanton is the managing owner. I don't think it's on a part-time basis.

Re: Wilson canned
This teams structure is and never will be to Do Whatever it takes to Win
This team makes a really good profit and it gains value. Everything Stanton could ask for
The only way this team breaks out of that is to sell to a group that wants to win enough to risk it. Go all in
Stanton has the money but lacks the killer instinct
Sell the team John

If they hire a "player's coach" again I'm going to lose it.
Give me a Pat Murphy or Stephen Vogt type please.

Lovullo would naturally be a candidate. I don't believe Nightingale has any actual Intel. I think he's just making that assumptionDan Wilson is already out in Seattle and Torey Lovullo already may be the leading candidate to replace him,” Nightengale wrote on X, formerly Twitter

Re: Wilson canned
I suppose Lovullo would be fine.
He's done a lot with some pretty mediocre talent/pitching staffs in a very difficult division.
Although I'm not sure what can really be said about him considering what happened over the last couple years with Marte. Didn't really wrangle him in.

This season had the highest attendance since 2004 so they don't think they need to do anything other than fire Dopey Dan....Southpaw773 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 28, 2026 4:06 amThe ownership group needs to grow a pair and fire everyone including Jerry and spend a little bit more.
Post season makes money and brings more money the following season but attendance will regress next year unless they make big changes. It’s not all hotdogs from heaven.
