While the Astros should be drawing universal admiration, owner Jim Crane is again diminishing the club's standing. Treatment of GM James Click could have long-term ramifications — including the quality of his replacement. ✍️ Ken_Rosenthal
I don’t know James Click’s personal finances, family dynamics or career ambitions, so it would be presumptuous for me to suggest that he tellBut it would be only fitting if Click, the team’s general manager, tells Crane to stick his one-year offer you-know-where.Crane, at least based on the success of the Astros, is a good owner. That doesn’t mean he is a good boss, and it doesn’t mean he fosters a good culture.
The Astros’ illegal electronic sign stealing in 2017 and 2018 was a direct reflection of the franchise’s win-at-all-costs mentality. Crane’s treatment of Click pushes limits in a different way. And it, too, could have long-term ramifications for the club, from the quality of the candidate who might be willing to replace Click to the steps in the future employees might take to placate Crane — a circumstance not unlike the one that got the Astros into trouble previously.
Crane will find another GM if Click departs; the job, one of only 30 in the majors, still will be coveted. Top candidates, though, might steer clear of the Astros, or at the very least ask pointed questions of the owner. And if Crane treats a successful head of baseball operations this ruthlessly, how can other employees feel secure?
