Two thoughts.
The coaching pool is pretty barren. Blashill doesn't move the needle much, but I'm coming around to the idea that he's the best available option and better than running a retread like Tortorella. He's also someone that you can dismiss if the guy you really want comes available, ala Rick Renteria.
My other thought, Anton Frondell should absolutely be the pick at #3 if the first two picks for Scheafer and Misa.
