Big Deal for DBacks Front Office

The Diamondbacks signed Josh Byrnes and Derrick Hall to long term deals, bringing stability to the front office for another eight years. I've liked what Josh has done since taking over the team, building a good young squad while keeping costs down. AZ Snakepit likes the president's accessibility:

Good to see Derrick Hall will be sticking around too, and committing long-term to the future. He has proven to be very approachable and 'out there', along with the fans in the trenches. Most regular attendees have seen him, or have a story of meeting him; mine is when he showed up, unannounced, at a DBBP get-together before a game, and just hung out with us for a bit. Can't really imagine Garigiola or Colangelo doing that. Kinda smart too to keep on the side of the die-hards who bleed Sedona Red. :-)
