GM Edward Murphy - I was not fortunate enough to ever speak with Ed, but from what I have read on the forums and the podcasts, he sounded like a sweet man. His name will forever be in remembrance as the name of the ballpark in Des Moines, Edward Murphy Memorial Stadium. In addition, the team has retired the #0 jersey as there is no one who will replace Ed.

Will add blurbs/stats later.

Went to a Brewers game with Ed. Great person and I remember that meeting well. Good stuff.
