Stoneman moving out of GM role in Anaheim: UPDATE
2007-10-16 17:52
by Bob Timmermann

If you weren't watching Game 3 of the ALCS, Ken Rosenthal reported that Angels GM Bill Stoneman will be moving upstairs become a consultant for the team and will likely be replaced by an internal candidate, possibly Ken Forsch.

6-4-2 will have more.

Update: Tony Reagins, as mentioned below and forwarded on by commenter Chyll Will, got the job as GM.

5 - that is unacceptable. Totally unacceptable. Moreno has to do pretend interviews with minorities, I'm half-Cuban, so I count, and I live ten minutes from the Staidum. C'mon Arte, give me a chance...

LA Times says it is Tony Reagins, director of player development.

If Reagins gets the job, he would be, what, the second black GM in the game?

10 Bob can't make me respect you, Xei. He may think he can control my emotions, but he can't. I'd say it to his face.

I respect you, but Bob has nothing to do with it. How can you not respect a guy who signs his posts with "vr"? It could mean so many things. I know what you say it means, but it could mean whatever you think while you're typing it. "Veal Rocks", for instance.

You can't earn my respect. You can only win it in an arbitrary contest.

11 , 12 Off the top of my head, I think he'd be the second current GM who is black - Kenny Williams being the other - but the third ever, including Bob Watson. Am I missing anyone?

Bill Lucas was the GM of the Braves back in the 1970s.
