Years will have to pass until we really know whether the Detroit Tigers got the right person to run the team. Yet in hiring San Francisco Giants GM Scott Harris, Tigers president Chris Ilitch continued the recent trend of breaking the mold established over the last decade of decision making within the organization. While the fanbase and those who cover the team try to parse through the tea leaves to get a feel for what Harris will bring to the organization, it’s the things he is not that stand out first.
Certainly Harris appears very well qualified.
