※ 引述《RubenGotay (吹动大麦的风)》之铭言： : 刚看勇士的粉丝团 : 我们家的GM 被解除职位了 : 由John Hart 先当实习GM : 谢谢 Frank Wren 这几年的辛苦 消息来源: http://m.mlb.com/news/article/95839732/braves-dismiss-gm-frank-wren-name-john-hart-interim-gm ATLANTA -- Nearing the end of their most disappointing season in more than two decades, the Braves have decided to begin altering the organization's culture by relieving general manager Frank Wren of his duties. Wren learned of his termination on Monday morning. John Hart, former GM of the Indians and Rangers who is one of Braves president John Schuerholz's closest friends, was named interim GM, but he has made it known that he enjoys his work as a MLB Network analyst too much to take on a full-time position with the club. Still, he will play a key role in the transition period to a new GM. The Braves have formed a three-person search and transition team that will include Schuerholz, Hart and Hall of Famer and former manager Bobby Cox. The Braves have scheduled a 12:30 p.m. ET news conference, which can be seen live on MLB.com and braves.com. As interim GM, Hart also will serve as a mentor and advisor to assistant GM John Coppolella, who will now assume a more significant role within the Braves front office. Coppolella, who was hired by Schuerholz in 2006, is considered one of baseball's best young minds and a future GM candidate. Wren is the first Braves GM to be dismissed since John Mullen in 1990. While the struggles endured by this year's team did not help Wren's case, there had been reason to wonder about his job security since November, when Hart was hired by the Braves to serve as a special advisor to the baseball operations department. Despite the fact that the Braves have experienced late-season collapses in two of Fredi Gonzalez's four seasons as their manager, Gonzalez is seemingly safe for now. But there is obviously a chance that his status could be influenced by the decision the club makes in regard to hiring a new GM. Wren accepted the unenviable responsibility of replacing Schuerholz as the Braves' GM after the 2007 season. He guided the club through a couple of rebuilding years and then constructed the roster that took Bobby Cox back to the playoffs in 2010, his final season as manager. The Yankees and Cardinals stand as the only clubs that have won more games than the Braves since the start of the 2009 season. But as the past few years have progressed, players, coaches, scouts and front-office employees have complained about the lack of harmony with the front office. That certainly caught the attention of Schuerholz, who established himself as a potential Hall of Famer as Atlanta's GM from 1991-2007, during which time the Braves won 14 consecutive division titles, five National League pennants and a World Series. Schuerholz had a strong working relationship with Cox during his long tenure as GM. There was a disconnect between Wren and Cox when they were the GM/manager duo, and Cox has been relatively quiet within the organization since his retirement. While Wren had some success with trades, his free-agent signings tarnished his tenure with the Braves. When he needed to reconstruct the starting rotation before the 2009 season, he signed veteran Derek Lowe to a four-year, $60 million contract and orchestrated both the scouting and signing of Japanese right-hander Kenshin Kawakami, who signed a three-year, $23 million deal and proceeded to go 8-22 with a 4.32 ERA over 50 appearances, 41 of them starts. Kawakami spent the final year of his deal with Double-A Mississippi. Lowe was traded to the Indians at the conclusion of the 2011 season, and the Braves ended up eating $10 million of the remaining $15 million owed to him. Earlier this season, the Braves released second baseman Dan Uggla and consequently had to eat the $19 million still owed to him on his five-year, $62 million contract he signed after being acquired from the Marlins after the 2010 season. And the Braves are staring at the possibility of eventually having to do something similar with outfielder B.J. Upton, who has been a significant disappointment since signing a franchise-record five-year, $75.25 million deal before the 2013 season. 文末最後还是提到了Wren离开的主要原因是签了一堆绩效不佳的肥约 (Lowe/Kawakami/Uggla/BJ)... John Hart之前似乎不是在勇士体系...文内提到他跟Schuerholz交情很好 有可能只是代理...但也有可能直接就扶正哩,另外一位候选人是Coppolella 不过Bowman倒是认为Gonzalez还能保住职位就是哩...且让我们继续看下去 --
