The Wilpons are the issue. Jeff is the issue.

Jeff Wilpon is the manager.
Jeff Wilpon is the GM.
Jeff Wilpon is the head trainer.
Jeff Wilpon is everything in the org that he chooses to be.

Your owner should not be meddling at all, even to a tiny modicum of what Jeff Wilpon does. Yet he meddles in EVERY SINGLE ASPECT. Look at this quote again.

- "...though sources continue to insist that Jeff, in particular, is a meddlesome presence, heavily involved in the day-to-day operation of the club."

HOW is this not a major point of contention????? How is this not something that nothing is done about? No one in charge (MLB) should allow anything to be run this way.

They are the ones who refuse to let the budget go beyond whatever arbitrary amount they feel like and smudge the numbers to make it look like they are selling. They are the ones who make moves like claiming "WIN NOW" by trading the future for Cano's awful contract and Diaz, but then not following it up by making any more win now moves. They are the ones who when you literally only have 3 SPs, refuse to spend $3M on one, and instead trade a legit prospect to get a guy with a 15 ERA go to make 3 starts for you, or use the AAA Express to start one of the same 4-5 guys as fill ins over and over when they have never worked out in any start in the past.
