Why was James Click hired to begin with and was he fired because he couldn't shift with changing conditions?
We are still only one week removed from the parade to celebrate the Astros' second World Series title, and just a few days removed from James Click being let go as general manager of the team. The search for a new GM is ostensibly on , but in the aftermath of Click's departure, we are learning more about the collapse of the relationship between owner and GM.
Go read Schwab's piece. If you're into some behind the scenes smoke, it's a fun read, and if true, begs the question"Okay then, why would Crane, who knew of Click's Tampa Bay background, hire him in the first place?" In other words, shouldn't Crane have expected for Click to handle business in a way that tries to maximize financial resources and frugality?
All of that would seem to point to the need to cut corners and find inexpensive solutions on the margins just to maintain competitiveness, and that's where Click may have felt like the best fit. Click had been around a team that had revenue shortfalls, overall talent issues, and free agents leaving year after year.
