Selfishly, I hope he stays with the Jays.

I’m personally hoping he doesn’t get the job. He’s doing a good job with Anthopoulos in Toronto, and I hope he stays.

Met Tony a few times, extremely bright baseball mind.. glad BNS mentioned the fact that he’s extremely current with all things sabr.

If your staff leaves because of a better opportunity, you know your organization is run well. Selfishly I hope he stays but if he’s deserving, he should get it.

Besides, LaCava can build another minor league system for AA to pillage!

Even tho I want him to stay and he has done an awesome job. I hope he gets a chance and be a GM somewhere. He and Tinnish will be a GM one day and have earned it.(Look at the Jays farm system from 2 years ago and to now)

I’m an Orioles fan, so I stand to gain from this, given that they’re saying he’s very likely to be hired as the new GM/President in Baltimore. Since almost the day MacPhail stepped down, LaCava has been my first pick to replace him, with Jerry Dipoto as my backup choice, but he is apparently being hired by the Angels for the same job, so he’s off the list, which leaves LaCava as the clear choice, and if the Orioles have a brain cell in their heads (and, yes, I have my doubts), they will bring him here straight away. I really believe this move will be good for our future in Baltimore and I’m glad to hear so many good things about him from Toronto fans. Every day I wake up and I immediately check my internet browser hoping to see that Tony LaCava has been hired by the Orioles. Hasn’t happened yet, but my fingers are crossed…

LaCava probably deserves a lot of personal credit that AA recieves. I think he’ll be a great GM, which – as other have said repeatedly – will make the Jays’ job even harder.
I think Orioles and Jays fans can unite in hoping for some kind of re-alignment because the AL East will soon have 5 teams which would likely challenge for any of the divisional titles outside the al (b)east. If you like watching good games, however, then we’re in for a pretty spectacular ~50% of the schedule

Frankly I was surprised Alex kept LaCava since he was hired by JP, but I think he did as a result of JP’s request. LaCava is a nice guy and an upgrade for Baltimore-of course anyone is. I do hope he takes the job because that will eliminate a problem Alex will have shortly which is how to promote Dana Brown over Lacava. Dana Brown is the real magic of the Jays behind the draft and minor league system-not LaCava.
