I got to thinking about that Saturday after the press conference announcing Amaro's new deal. These days, you almost never see a team trot a former player up to the podium to try on his general-manager hat. Right?If you want to run a team some day, you have just as good a shot at it if you go get an MBA at some prestigious institute of higher learning as if you know how to execute a hit-and-run. But I'm not sure why exactly.

Ruben Amaro Jr. gets extension
The Philadelphia Phillies gave Ruben Amaro Jr. four year contract extension. Ruben Amaro Jr. got the extension because he was probably the best GM the Phillies ever have.
