Preferred Carlos Rodriguez the Rays VP of development as Rays seem to have been able to both identify and develop prospects. No clue if theres a fit issue with Jed and Cubs organization nor if Carlos is any good at his job. Just appears that Rays consistently produce more prospects who deliver at MLB level.
Regarding Cubs inability to develop pitching prospects, believe one issue that hurt pitching development is that Cubs early on consistently selected position players over pitchers then pitchers with lower ceilings - and lower floors - that would be more able to get into the majors quicker. No clue if development is a bigger issue or scouting/priorities for draft has resulted in inability to consistently develop pitching prospects for majors.
Again, doubt if anyone is that upset with expected hire, Carter Hawkins, but was expecting someone from Rays organization.
