This is definitely a possibility. LaCanfora is not a reliable source and this could just be speculation. Wawrow noting that the pre-draft luncheon is a huge departure from the way things have generally been done in the past is significant, but it doesn't necessarily mean Whaley is getting fired. Pegula hasn't been the owner for 17 years, so that fact could mean even less than it's being made out to be. Pegula DID say that he employs a GM to win games, not to "win" a press conference. This could be a case of letting Whaley do what he's good at and letting the HC, who is much more comfortable dealing with the media, be the face of the organization. I mean this IS what the team told us there would do a while ago. It is also entirely possible that as McD's influence grows, Whaley is less assured of his job. The point is, we don't really have enough information to deduce anything and everything being said is pure speculation.
Yes, logic. You should recognize the word, it's the thing that is missing from the majority of you posts and opinions
