SG, by "derivative", DOD deserves some credit. By derivative, then, so do Keli and Charlie for keeping DOD around. The thing is, a GM has to do a lot more than just hire the right organizational executives. He also has to optimize a budget, and DOD can be criticized for that. Also, his judgment of MLB talent has been lacking at times (Relaford, Hocking, King, keeping Martin this year, etc.).
