Buster Olney was on Waddle & Silvy today.  He was asked whether Theo is being overhyped.  Olney said about a year ago he polled about 15 GMs and asked them to identify the best GM in baseball.  He said 12 of the 15 said Theo.  Said he's not the most popular GM (mentioned Hendry as someone who was extremely well liked in contrast), but that even GMs who don't like Theo think he's "phenomenal at what he does."  Smart, quick study, and said Theo is far more competitive than the public realizes.

I want Theo to become the most hated man in baseball.

Everybody hates a winner.
