The Luka thing is the only insurmontable mistake. That is a franchise changing mistake that could have ended any hope for 10 plus years. Miraculuosly they may have gotten lucky.
GM's can have the Grimes mistakes a few times and it hardly mattters. I agree I can see the Martin appeal, even if I didn't agree with it. If your remember when the trade was made Nico thought he had a championship contender now (laughs). The front office made the decision that they preferred the young Christie and the older, win now player in Klay over Grimes. I did not particularly agree with that. Although, if that is the case you have your decision that you were not going to resign Grimes.
The big issue with the Grimes trade is the negotiotion. First, for including the early second round pick. OK, for a healthy Martin maybe that is defensible...maybe. Although when you got word that he was hurt to not play hardball when you thought you had a contender (laughs) is just terrible business.
But here we ae. I had every intention of walking away or taking a step back. I was too weak though. Maybe that would have changed if we picked 12 and had another bad year. I think I am back now
. Although, I am in fear of some other stupid move almost every day. LOL
