Mike Rizzo Q&A and profile

Q&A with Mike Rizzonationals.com
Mike Rizzo talks with Bill Ladson about his new role with the Nationals. I like most of what I am hearing, but FJB wonders about Stan Kasten trusting Rizzo.

Rizzo steps up to plateThe Wash. Times
A profile of Rizzo:

He also exuded a relaxed confidence that he’ll get the Nationals’ general manager job permanently.

“I’m confident I’m going to be the long-term solution here,” Mr. Rizzo said.

If that indeed is the case, Mr. Rizzo will bring a new approach. He took little issue with the perception that the Nationals’ reputation has been sullied, saying the only way to fix that is to do things differently.

I like the attitude, almost Bruce Boudreau-like, show up and act like it isn’t an interim job.
