In a continuing story, the Star is reporting that David Glass has offered the GM job to Braves assistant Dayton Moore. But Moore wants complete control of personnel. Smart man. He knows what's been going on in the Royal organization for too long and if he's going to come into a mess like this with any hopes of turning things around, he needs to know that he can choose his own players.
Glass has apparently set a deadline (this weekend sometime) for the deal to be struck, otherwise he's ready to offer the position to somebody else.
Two other names that surfaced in the article is former Phillies GM Ed Wade and former Tigers and Padres GM Randy Smith.
I still find it incredibly odd, and a tad bit unprofessional of David Glass to be so open about the search for a new GM when he hasn't even fired the current one. But, at this point, why would we expect Glass to do something conventionally?
More as the story develops.
