Yeah some of the bloom has come off his "boy wonder" rose. I'm not sure I'd call him "one of the smartest minds in the game"... I wouldn't put him on the same level as B. Beane or A. Friedman for example. He's got his strengths and he's got his weaknesses.
If his seat isn't hot yet it'll be hot if the only reason you watch the Jays in September is to see the prospects play.
