SI.com is reporting that longtime Braves GM John Schuerholz is stepping down and that Frank Wren, currently an assistant GM, would take over.

Schuerholz was the architect of the Braves success in the 90’s and 00’s and – despite only 1 World Series victory – is hailed by many as the best GM in MLB.

If the report is true, it’s been a great ride and we were lucky to have him. Schuerholz will reportedly stay on as team president (a post formerly held by Yankee-lover and Nationals president, Stan Kasten).

Discuss.

    I’m not sure if that’s addition by subtraction or just subtraction.
