In what way? They had to look for a replacement president since they knew that Beeston was retiring, so they sought out one of the best 'baseball guys' in the game in Shapiro, a smart and progressive guy with a lot of experience. They also didn't automatically resign AA, which may have caused tensions between the incoming president and his subordinate. They expanded the payroll when AA decided to go all in, putting us around top 10 in that regard.
Honestly, I don't see anything there that was handled particularly poorly.
