With his in-depth knowledge of talent in the Sox farm system, it will be interesting to see if this translates to trades between the Mariners and Red Sox. I imagine Dave Dombrowski will be one of his first calls.

I imagine Dave Dombrowski will be one of his first calls. To be honest, I doubt that he gained much more knowledge in a month and a half than a given team already has based on scouting. Plus he was focused on evaluating the major league club - had he stayed, he'd have moved on to the minors, based on what I've read.

On a strategic level, it makes sense for this to be the case too. You probably don't want a guy who is likely the competition soon to get too good of a look at the unknowns of your org - prospects. The major league is a different story. Much more access no matter who you are.
