A lot of people on twitter saying Shapiro is the guy. Also saying it will be official by tomorrow or monday.

sorry if this is being discussed in another thread, a mod can lock or merge.

Let's hope Rogers isn't stupid enough to curb the momentum of the team right now. We are talking about Rogers, though.

Why can't they just hire him and shut up until the season is over?

Looks like it is happening.

Shapiro is a great hire by Rogers. Good on the business side and baseball side. The article states he intends on keeping AA.

Edit: further confirmation from Rosenthal:

Brady is saying that AA can work with Shapiro, but the bigger question is whether he'll get the kind of money under Shapiro/Rogers he can expect now on the open market. Demand for him likely to be high enough to boost up the salary.
