Let's take a look at Matt Klentak's four drafts
Matt Klentak is entering his 5th season as the general manager of the Phillies and he is still waiting for his first winning season. That's not all that uncommon, is it? Bob Brookover of The Inquirer has your answer:
You can chop off one of your hands and and still count the number of GMs who remain employed without posting a winning record during their first five seasons in the job during this century. The list: Dayton Moore in Kansas City, Rick Hahn with the White Sox, A.J. Preller in San Diego, and Mike Hill in Miami.
Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA rankings give the Phillies 77 wins this season, so Klentak better hope those dudes are big, fat liars.
