    I would like to ask the new boss which players Tampa Bay would have chosen in Miami’s draft position over the last five drafts.

      The draft has actually been a weak spot for the Rays too! Hit a home run with McClanahan in 2018. Not much has gone their way since. They’ve done enough smart things outside of the draft to make up for it, of course.

    is there a resume drop for roles, obviously baseball side is cool but likely more interest applicable skills in business side.

      This page is updated year-round with Marlins job listings: https://www.teamworkonline.com/baseball-jobs/miamibaseball/miami-marlins

      But you usually won’t see the high-level executive positions there. The search process for those is handled differently.
