Trying to have a legacy without the Zito debacle on his head. Can't say I blame him, but it's probably too late for that.

I am 100% ok with this. He played too big a role. Let the GM do his job and you do yours. Hopefully the person who takes his place lets the baseball people run the baseball side of things.
