Stan Kasten has an active mind. A brilliant mind, many say. Zack Greinke was so impressed with the Dodgers president that when the right-hander signed with the team in 2012, he called him “the smartest guy I’ve ever talked to.”
Of course, that was before the Dodgers wouldn’t go a sixth year on Greinke’s new contract and he signed with the Diamondbacks. Maybe Greinke has a different review now.
Thus far, it has been a fairly disastrous off-season for the Dodgers, their new Geek Squad front office of Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi failing to manage a single move of significance.
