FOXSports’ Jon Paul Morosi says the Arizona Diamondbacks’ list of potential general manager candidates is starting to take shape. According to sources close to Morosi, the Diamondbacks plan to speak with the following six people:

• Jerry Dipoto, Diamondbacks interim GM
• Peter Woodfork, Diamondbacks assistant GM
• Kevin Towers, former Padres GM and current Yankees adviser
• Damon Oppenheimer, Yankees vice president of amateur scouting
• De Jon Watson, Dodgers assistant GM for player development
• Logan White, Dodgers assistant GM for amateur and international scouting

Sources says that the Diamondbacks’ superiors were happy with the job that Dipoto did at the July 31st trade deadline. Among Dipoto’s accomplishments this season are: Dan Haren trade with the Los Angeles Angels, Edwin Jackson trade with the Chicago White Sox, Chad Qualls trade with the Tampa Bay Rays and the Chris Snyder trade with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
