The Giants today announced that Marc Ross has received a new title, Vice President of Player Evaluation. He had been the Director of College Scouting.
“Marc has done an outstanding job of running our college scouting and the draft, and we wanted to give him a title that reflected that,” said Giants general manager Jerry Reese. “He will continue to do that, but I also want him to work on some special projects in pro personnel along with pro personnel director Ken Sternfeld.”

One by one, Woody, Sam and Carla go into Rebecca's office asking for a raise. All three come out of her office only with superficial new titles.
How can people be so sure that it is not an actual promotion Â
they promote or create a new title for him? Does he have other options ? He was touted as shoe in for a GM vacancy last year but there was no interest. Mara is the one behind the scenes on player evaluation.
he doesn't even want to interview for their GM job, which is a huge promotion, and a promotion where there is no U-Haul truck, or finding good schools involved, that tells you something.
For the Giants, it tells you something you have take very serious notice of, and plan accordingly for that person's and organization's future.
I've said several times in the past that I am not yet sold on Ross.
Actually, I wanted to reserve judgement on him until he had been around long enough to evaluate his work. Interestingly in the intervening years I have not grown any closer to a conclusion on Ross. I guess if push came to shove I would label him excruciatingly average. A JAG.
Has anyone else noticed the perceptible, even if not precipitous drop in the quality of our drafts since Ross has been running them?
Before anyone admonishes me, I know the drafts since Ross has been here haven't exactly been considered chock full of talent, but at some point all I am really concerned with is results....

Again...guess on my end

Good for him. I'm not going to pretend to know everything about our front office, but he's apparently been a very big part of our success.

Solid Giants move.
