As cig said, I have no idea what Ricketts has planned. But, looking from the outside it seems it will be tough for him to shake up the font office on the eve of the offseason. So, I would think Hendry has at least next year left as the general manager. I find it hard to believe that he would go on the hook for 3/4 of a billion dollars without wanting to make some sort of a splash with his new team. Ricketts has been linked to Sandy Alderson, who I could see being brought in as team president but not as general manager. Maybe that will be his big splash. I just don't see how he is going to come in in his first year at the helm with a payroll well past $100 million, and say he is going to tear it down and rebuild.
