Kevin McHale or Isiah Thomas. They'd do a lot better than GMing a basketball team.

Cashman and Epstien know how to build a team around money...

Schurerholz has a really good scouting department (even if the money wasn't all there)...

I'd go with Beane because if you are a new franchise than you are prolly going to have to play "Money Ball"...

Just because you are in Vegas doesn't mean you have money... alot of people lose money, so they could be a really poor team...

Not the casino owners who bought the Royals & moved them there, clearly!

Why would Casino owners be interested in buying a baseball team... and who says it'd be casino owners?

I mean, they seem like the logical group to me. Just another source of revenue for them, and you've gotta think that the money coming from a casino owner isn't going to dry up -- they're going to be able to pour money into the team like cheap vodka on a saturday night.

That is true... if this were to happen, you'd also need to look at what kind of market there is and alot of other stuff, but I see where you are coming from... and I was more trying to flush out your opinion here so anyone who reads this understands where you are coming from...

Before hiring a GM I'd fire my marketing team and hire some people that can come up with a better name...

But for the sake of the questions I'll take the guy who can put together a team with an equal and or better record than teams with three times his payroll: Mark Shapiro.

Las Vegas - Aces, Bandits, Gamblers, Blackjacks, Johns, Markers, Homeless, Spearmint Rhinos and Crack Dealing Trannies all sound better than "Jackpots". Only thing stupider than Jackpots would be the Royal Flushes... or Craps

I like "Crack Dealing Trannies" myself. The announcers would shorten it to the CDT's

The future of baseball is in undrafted players from Latin America. I am going with Omar Minaya!
