Ah, finally, something positive came out of the GM Winter Meetings for all teams. And, may I add, it's about time someone took notice of this.
Yahoo! Sports' David Brown of Big League Stew came up with this list yesterday, and much to our dismay, Ruben Amaro, Jr. did not make it in the top ten. He may be extraordinarily smug and mighty bronze, but was unfortunately cut short.
To recap, Kevin Towers, GM of the Arizona Diamondbacks ranked as the sexiest General Manager in Major League Baseball. The complete order:
- Kevin Towers, Arizona Diamondbacks
- Billy Beane, Oakland Athletics
- Dayton Moore, Kansas City Royals
- Brian Cashman, New York Yankees
- Jed Hoyer, Chicago Cubs
- Dave Dombrowski, Detroit Tigers
- Ben Cherington, Boston Red Sox
- Neal Huntington, Pittsburgh Pirates
- Chris Antonetti, Cleveland Indians
- Sandy Alderson, New York Mets
- Josh Byrnes, San Diego Padres
- Frank Wren, Atlanta Braves
- Mike Rizzo, Washington Nationals (Side note: Fake sexy?)
- Jon Daniels, Texas Rangers
- Michael Hill, Miami Marlins
- John Mozeliak, St. Louis Cardinals
- Ruben Amaro, Philadelphia Phillies
- Andrew Friedman, Tampa Bay Rays
- Rick Hahn, Chicago White Sox
- Jack Zduriencik, Seattle Mariners
- Terry Ryan, Minnesota Twins
- Walt Jocketty, Cincinnati Reds
- Jeffrey Luhnow, Houston Astros
- Jerry Dipoto, Los Angeles Angels
- Doug Melvin, Milwaukee Brewers
- Dan O'Dowd, Colorado Rockies
- Brian Sabean, San Francisco Giants
- Alex Anthopoulos, Toronto Blue Jays
- Dan Duquette, Baltimore Orioles
- Ned Colletti, Los Angeles Dodgers
Now, I understand how this list could be ranked differently by, say, a woman, but, the fellas at Big League Stew gave this list a sublime order, so my hat goes off to them. Coming from a teen-aged girl, I would say that a few men on this list (Alex Anthopoulos, Jerry Dipoto, John Mozeliak) would rank a bit higher. Personal opinion. Whatever you're into, Big League Stew.
