Just out of curiosity, which scenario do you think would play out better:

Taking over the Phillies, a team that on the surface looks like a juggernaut, with tremendous pitching, a huge rabid fan base and therefore a huge budget that has a legitimate shot to win it all. Under the surface however is a depleted farm system and a big league club showing age, and beginning to crack. Without careful handling a swift and hard fall is possible.

Taking over the Orioles, a nice club in need of a big star. Average size market but up against some behemoths in the A.L. East

Taking over a dreadful Cubs team in need of a total overhaul. Resources however are plenty and good management could have the Cubs competitive within a couple of seasons. Plus there's that curse thing...
