Norfolk GM's Crazy Week

Norfolk GM Thomas Carrano has had what you would call a crazy first week since taking over the Norfolk Tides origination. Not only has he looked over his team and saw major flaws in the personal but he also got rid of the players who he thought were either over paid or under performing. He was asked by the local sports writer why he traded for young unproven players and his respond was great. He said "That changing the culture from losing to winning you need to start over, so with these young players coming over from other teams who don't know the losing mentality that has been in Norfolk for some time can give them and the origination a fresh start". The reporter also asked why trade most of your draft picks and he said" I'm not a big fan of drafting a player and waiting 2-3 years for them to MAYBE turn into a star or not, I feel that some teams have the patience for that and do a good job, but I can trade the pick and get a player or two that will help my team now".
