Gord Ash unplugged

Griff's Conversation with the former Blue Jays GM on his 14 years with the organization

Currently Gord Ash acts as vice-president, special projects with the Milwaukee Brewers, having recently completed the construction and establishment of that club’s new baseball academy in the Dominican Republic. Ash discusses what he learned from his former boss, Pat Gillick, details of the trade for Robbie Alomar and Joe Carter, the perils and travails of taking over as GM coming out of the strike of 1994, Roy Halladay, his first draft pick, and how Mel Queen fixed the Hall-of-Famer by starting from scratch and fixing his arm angle with strange geometry, lessons from the disappointing trade for Mike Sirotka … and more.
