Hendry did all he could. Clapp nailed it, we gave Pie 1 year to put up or shut up, and he couldn't do it, especially have all that work they tried with him.
Blaming Hendry? There's no way you can blame him. If you're going to blame him, you might as well blame Fleita and the scouting directors in the Dominican for finding him in the first place.
Hendry put all the confidence in Pie and he choked. Then, like a good GM does, he made the signing of the year and picked up some "scraps" in Jim Edmonds.
Jim Hendry pulled off this deal to swing Peavy, and when it happens suddenly everyone will re-canonize Hendry. Unbelievable that he's getting flack for this.

I hate my pretentious sounding username too.
