Nothing a trip to Ikea can’t fix.

So the guy running the big league team will be called the Asst Gm who will report to the GM, who has no control over the big league team and is instead running the minor leagues. Makes perfect sense.

Yeah, this is pretty dumb. If they want to be loyal to O’Dowd for some reason I guess that is their decision to make, but this structure is completely illogical.

So the assistant manager will be running the big league as the actual GM will be running the minor leagues? The hell…

Shuffling of the deck chairs complete! Sheesh.

It’s like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic….

Like shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic… I guess this was as close as the Monforts could bring themselves to firing O’Dowd.

Seems like the Rox are too “nice” to fire people they like, even when they’re obviously not doing their jobs well. Looks like the nice-guy Rockies are indeed finishing last this year.

Yet another bizarre non-move for the Rox in this the “YEAR OF THE FAN.” Seriously, the front office is so out-of-touch with how to construct a competitive MLB team that it is beyond sad. Maybe this “new” GM can find a way to extend Helton & Giambi’s deals for another 3-4 years, re-up JTracy for another 5 years and give the Star-Made-of-Glass TuLo another 14 years onto his current deal. Maybe they can sign some more “clubhouse” guys who can help sooth the lockeroom what with so much losing going on. Maybe they can go out and acquire 10 more SPs who specialize in giving up fly balls. Maybe…ok, that’s enough.

So the big restructuring is that the guy that has been there for 12 years is now the GM. That is the type of move you make when a successful GM retires. This is obviously not one of those situations. It is getting harder and harder to be a Rockies fan.

Need to restructure the starting rotation.
