Not an entirely new concept, as MiLB side has been handing out "C the Z" awards for a few years now, but still good.

In 2013 M's minor league coaches were running around spring training wearing "Control The Zone" shirts.

Another thing RE ControltheZone - some past M's winners: Guillermo Pimentel, Steve Baron, Joe DeCarlo...again it's great, doesn't guarantee success.

outside of a couple of good baseball guys, z hired a bunch of dilettantes to run the organization from top to bottom.

we'll see soon enough if JeDi's mass of firings and hiring yield actual results.

You mean we should see if JeDi runs Jack's plan better than Jack ran it? Funny because I thought JeDi was the forward thinker while Jack was old school yet JeDi follows in the footsteps of the old timer. Maybe JeDi has better videos to show his players.

Ah! I guess history is an unfair measuring stick.

I wish I had your patience and Dalai Lama like intestinal fortitude.
