Moore for GM?

Rumors have been floating around that the Royals are actively looking around for a replacement for Baird. But it wasn't until recently that names started floating around. One such rumor has the job being offered to Dayton Moore, assistant GM of the Braves. While I don't know if he's got the qualifications for the job, it's reassuring to know that he seems to fully understand the situation as it seems the major hurdle to this deal going through is that Moore wants written assurance from Glass that he will have complete control over personnel matters.

Watch out though, if this deal doesn't complete, then Royals fans likely will have another 10 years of frustration as they deal with the next Glass lackey.

Of course, one also has to consider that even though this story was posted on Saturday, who knows when it was actually written. It's possible that yesterday's victory over the Yankees has changed Glass's mind over the Royals' state of affairs. I wouldn't put it past him, anyway.
