Cherington In Play for Giants Job
Ben Cherington, Blue Jays VP of baseball operations, is apparently a candidate for the vacant San Francisco Giants GM position, reports Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe. Several other sources have pointed to the Baltimore Orioles, who themselves have an open GM position, as another possible destination for Cherington.
Despite the links, it’s unlikely that Cherington will pursue any other opportunities, as he’s apparently quite happy in his current position with the Jays.
Kratz Hot for the Crew
Former Blue Jay Erik Kratz, who this postseason has become somewhat of a sensation, has been surprisingly productive in the first couple of games for the Milwaukee Brewers.
