The Houston Astros announced this afternoon that they would be going into next season with Brad Mills at their helm. Terry Francona had nothing but good things to say about his friend:
"I think he's ready. He's been ready. That's subjective, but he's been working his whole life toward this. When he was second in charge, he did a great job. Now he's going to be making the decisions, and he'll do a great job. You can't find a better guy. He deserves this opportunity. Again, I hope he takes it and runs with it. I'm thrilled for him."
Good luck to Mills. He has, to put it politely, a challenge ahead of him.
And as long as we're talking about one, we might as well mention the other: Assistant GM Jed Hoyer has also gotten himself a new job. He has been hired as the General Manager of the San Diego Padres for the next four years. He also has a challenge ahead of him.
