Cleveland AGM Carter Hawkins is the new Cubs GM

[UMFan83]

 

Dont know anything about him

[CyHawk_Cub]

He has two last names. Can't be a good sign.

And I'm very wary of anyone related to the Cubs with the last name Hawkins.

 

Carter is cool because it reminds me of who made the final out in the 1998 Wild Card tiebreaker

iirc TT will not be pleased

I just appreciate this diversity hire, taking a guy from a non-Ivy.

I don’t have issues with his qualifications and he seems as good a bet as any candidate to help the org, but it’s a real missed opportunity to break up the homogeneity of the FO’s decision makers. Especially since the Epstein executive tree has not covered itself in glory on or off the field recently.

[sneakypower]

eh Cleveland isn't really one of the first teams i'd want to poach FO talent from, especially considering their most notable recent standout successes likely just stemmed from doctoring the ball

Oh goody, another douchebro

Jesus.

 

Look at that pile of wet dough.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Jesus.

 

Look at that pile of wet dough.

He'll fit in.

 

I assume that's the point.

[Backtobanks]

Don't be too sure about fitting in because he a pretty diverse pick.

His fashion sense screams, "did I do a good business, Daddy Ricketts?!?"

[Outshined_One]

 

If I saw this picture without any context, I'd assume he was just elected U.S. Representative for some backwater district in Texas.

[Sammy Sofa]

Come the horsefeathers on.

[minnesotacubsfan]

I agree with Sox fans in this respect: It's far easier to hate this team then it is to love it

The name and photo absolutely scream Vanderbilt.

[Brian]

he looks like a nerd nerd not a baseball nerd

Like the only a sex pest if you're lucky kind of nerd nerd.

[Tryptamine]

I'd put heavy money that he and Madison Cawthorn would be best friends if they met.
