Some people just want to be upset about anything they can. She’s been an assistant GM for the Yankees and Dodgers, she’s qualified.

Yea Condoleeza Rice being on the college football playoff committee is the same. She actually holds a vote and she has never played the sport before and her only answer was she watched a little while at Stanford. That's a fricking joke -

Equal opportunity should never be Equao outcome but here we are

This is going to be plastered all over the news but this chick has been around baseball for 3 decades and held executive positions for a significant chunk of that time. She's clearly qualified.

90 seconds of using the Google machine would tell you that she's been SVP of Baseball Ops for MLB since 2011. Hardly unqualified.

You look pretty bad here, dude.

This. I don't know enough about her to say this will be a great hire or not, but there clearly could be worse hires, like hiring some former player that's never held a front office job in his life. She's clearly qualified.

You might get fired for being racist if you say her last name how it looks.

It’s a slippery slope, y’all. Next thing we know they will allow these people to vote.
