No. But I bet you if I owned the Cubs I could.

So...you're telling me you want Hendry fired, but can't name three other GMs that would do a better job?
You're making this too easy.

You said three desired replacement candidates.
The guy that worked on my mower last week was a fucking joke. Are you saying I'm stuck with him till I've identified someone I prefer. I know I'm done with him, without looking in the phone book for his replacement.
Being done with Hendry is not dependent on identifying his replacement. It just requires a sufficient level of dissatisfaction with the job he's doing.
I don't know about you, but I hardly ever spend the better part of a billion dollars on a Major League Franchise without an idea that I can add value to my investment by doing a few things differently. But hey, that's just me.
Or maybe it's Ricketts too. Maybe he has some vision for the franchise that extends beyond Hendry's tenure. I'm ready to see it.

Better or worse?
Why?
No. But I bet you if I owned the Cubs I could.
