Heltonfan, don't keep us in suspense ... who are your Top 5 and Bottom 5 GMs?

Off the top of my head, I'd have to say the Top 5 (in no particular order) are Beane, Towers, Byrnes, Ryan, Schuerholz (I think I cheated Jocketty, Stoneman and Beinfest here, but there's only room for 5.)

Bottom 5? Hendry, Bavasi (he's still in charge in Seattle I think?), Flanagan & Co., Purpura ... and I can't think of anyone else in their class. I didn't forget about Sabean and Colletti. Sabean because even if the Giants tank, 8 winning seasons in a row ain't bad. Colletti because he has so far resisted the temptation to sell all his young talent.
