    From all reports this is a good hire. At least the Astros wont be deviating too far from what they have done in the past.

    So, do we warmly welcome him? There were no instructions in the title.

    All in on this. In Click we trust. I especially like that his background seems to cover a little bit of everything except the farm. He’s been in ops, r&d, pro player scouting and dev, roster and contract management, and staff mgmt. On paper he’s the perfect guy to come in and lead, with retaining Putila to continue leading the draft/farm.

    I like this. Rays guys are always a good choice. Definitely a lot better than the other guys that were rumored.
