We have decided to replace Justin as GM of the Athletics. The A's were widely considered a dark horse wild card contender at the start of the year, and they still have a much better team on paper than their record would suggest. They need a new, active GM to right the ship.
If you know anyone who would be interested in taking over this team, have them message me and Brian with an application answering the following three questions: 1) what do you see as the team's strengths and weaknesses, 2) how would you go about addressing those needs short and long term (generally speaking - no specific targets, please) 3) what are your own strengths (and weaknesses) as a GM?

Hello there everyone. It is with great excitement that I accept the position as GM of the Oakland Athletics. I see that this season hasn't been the best for the franchise, but I look forward to competing with all of you and hopefully righting the ship.
Some quick info about me: My name is Denver Milam and I am from a small town in Michigan called Newport, about 45 minutes from Toledo. My favorite team is the Colorado Rockies. I will be a college freshman in the fall studying Accounting and Economics with a preface into law. And finally I am looking to gear for the future, so picks and young guys will be what I'm looking for.
I can't wait to see what this chapter holds for the Athletics organization, and am ready to compete and open trade talks. Thanks for allowing me in, and let's get on base... erm, I meant to work.
Denver Milam -6/20/17

Hey, a fellow Michigander! (I'm from NYC originally, then lived four years in Minneapolis, but I've been living in Royal Oak since last summer)
