Andrew Friedman sure doesn't sound like a guy who wants to leave

The St. Petersburg Times' Marc Topkin has a story on Rays' GM Andrew Friedman, amid speculation that the Cubs and/or Astros may make a run at him.

Friedman:
"As an organizational philosophy, we don't comment on rumors and speculation in any part of our business; there's no reason to. My focus is on taking the learnings from the 2011 season and rolling them into the (Rays') 2012 team."

Really, though, why would he leave Tampa?
