If the Twins hire Gardy as President of Baseball Ops and he hires Rick Anderson as GM then we can all worry! Greinke was only money and if the Owner wants to spend some of his billions on a very good player I won't complain. If they use it as an excuse later on using budget constraints as an excuse for doing nothing then I would complain.
I wonder what the K rate for these guys was. I've read that a very high K rate, like Walker and Palka have, is a very good indicator that the player likely won't suceed in the majors.
