General Managers - Will there be anymore openings for 2010?
The worst kept secret in baseball will apparently be made public in the next day or two, the San Diego Union-Tribune is reporting that the Padres will announce tomorrow that Boston Red Sox Assistant GM Jed Hoyer will become the next San Diego Padre GM.
Hoyer has been the leading candidate for some time now, even though last weekend, it was announced that the Padres had interviewed Dodger VP and Assistant GM Kim Ng had also been interviewed.
One of the annual pastimes for Dodger fans is will some other team hire either Kim Ng or Logan White away from the team. One note, for the last 2 years, Ng has interviewed for the Mariner and Padre GM positions, Logan White had one interview with Houston but that was a few years ago.
Now, lets take a look at the rest of baseball and see if Dodger fans can put this worry aside for another year.
NL West
Dodgers - reached agreement with current GM Ned Colletti for unspecified length of time extension.
Giants - Brian Sabean signed 2-year extension (2011)
Rockies - Dan o'Dowd is expected to sign extension
Diamondbacks - Josh Byrnes is signed through 2015
Padres - Jed Hoyer hired in 10/2009
NL Central
Cardinals - John Mozeliak signed through 2010
Cubs - Jim Hendry - signed 4-year extension in 2008
Astros - Ed Wade signed through 2010
Brewers - Doug Melvin signed through 2012
Reds - Walt Jocketty signed through 2011
Pirates - Neal Huntington signed through 2010
NL East
Phillies - Ruben Amaro signed through 2011
Marlins - Larry Beinfest, Michael Hill signed through 2015
Mets - Omar Minaya signed through 2012
Nationals - Mike Rizzo just hired in 8/09
Braves - Frank Wren promoted in 10/07
AL West
Angels - Tony Reagins promoted in 10/07
Athletics - Billy Beane signed through 2014
Mariners - Jack Zduriencik hired prior to 2009 season
Rangers - Jon Daniels signed through 2011
AL Central
Tigers - Dave Dombrowski signed through 2011
Twins - Bill Smith promoted in 10/07
White Sox - Ken Williams has contract that renews every year
Indians - Mark Shapiro signed through 2012
Royals - Dayton Moore signed through 2014
AL East
Yankees - Brian Cashman signed through 2011
Red Sox - Theo Epstein signed extension in 2008 for unknown length of time
Rays - Andrew Friedman promoted in 11/05
Blue Jays - Alex Anthopoulos promoted in 10/07
Orioles - Andy MacPhail hired in June 2007
It would appear that there will be no other openings this fall, for next year, I would look at Houston but there can always be a surprise now and then.

Cubs or Astros are the most likely choices.
The Ricketts family just paid about a billion to run the team, they’re not going to allow a few millions that Hendry is owned to impede their vision.
