Out with the Old, in with the New: Jim Smith Now GM of San Francisco
Thursday, October 10th, 2019
Can San Francisco win with Jim Smith at the helm?
Several respected baseball commentators urged team ownership to show patience with the new man.
"New general managers are always in a rough spot," wrote one. "The organization needs to take a thoughtful, weighted approach. It has some great talent, but it also has holes. Smith shouldn't reinvent the wheel or feel pressured to make any knee-jerk decisions this early on. He should take his time and base his assessment of the club on logic."
Sage advice, if San Francisco will listen to it.
