Gaslamp Ball will occasionally provide endorsements and judgments in the world of baseball and beyond. Should Gaslamp Ballers need to cast a vote or require an official opinion, look for Gaslamp Ball Proclamations first to see what our official stance is. Thank you.
After thinking about all of the special times that GM Kevin Towers has had with the Padres, Gaslamp Ball has come to the conclusion that he should remain in employ with the team not only for next season, but the season after and into perpetuity. While he remains of this Earth, no decision should ever be made in regards to the Padres' player personnel without first consulting Mr. Towers.
Should Kevin Towers, at a later date, become obviously unfit for the position of General Manager, we'll probably have to stage a coup.

Rename the park in his honor
Kevin Towers is a pretty cool name for any tall architecture.

Ive scoffed at almost every KT trade
only to eat my words a few weeks or months later. SAVE KT!
DODGERS, RED SOX, YANKEES, BRONCOS, PATRIOTS and RAIDERS all suck. Especially the Dodgers.

Me too.
I thought KT had lost his mind after the Scott Hairston and Jake Peavy trades. Shows how smart I am….
Same here.
Most specifically the Hairston and Peavy trades. But I see now that they were smart moves that needed to be made and I respect KT for making them, even though many of us were against them.
Ya i went back to check numbers
But you don’t have to be a member of this blog to vote on that if i am correct?
Plus i still haven’t seen that 14 % speak up. I’d like to know who voted no and their reasoning.
wheres your "Garfinkel is my homeboy" tat going?

Pay KT so he never wants to go anywhere
As the rest of baseball gets smarter (think Boston) and big market teams start waking up that they can get smarter, KT will on everyone’s radar.
Big knock on Moorad if he does not back KT.
Darren is usually right
but I hope he is dead wrong on this…..
Yeah
if Hacksaw or Scott and BR said it I would be skeptical but it’s Darren so I tend to believe it. I don’t want to believe it but I believe it.
Lies!

Who would replace him?
Someone from within, like depo? Moorad himself?

I've been saying it all along
yet you guys were blinded by Garfinkel’s dashing good looks, fish tacos, Wigwam and free tickets
Ok so looking ahead if kt gets the boot
Who replaces him?
I’ve heard a name or so from Arizona but nothing substantive. Any ideas?

WHY?????
why why why must they do this when the team has finally seemed to get its sea legs?
KT doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment!!!!
Kevin Towers
It would be a HUGE mistake for ownership to get rid of KT…………There is no better GM available that can live within the budget that the Padres have………..DON’T DO IT……..
