Luchino should stick to his own job.insted of micro managing the baseball people.
One thing for sure is the next GM will be a puppet for Luchino.  |

Yup I take back my earlier comment about Theo and it being all about money. Now that the facts are starting to filter out to the puplic it was def a control issue. Theo didnt want Luccino looking over his shoulder all the time.

I think the Sox blew it mainly by how, or the manner in which, they offered the money, yeah it was 1.5 eventually, but it started wayyy lower, then got over a mil, then finally hit 1.5. All this after finally winning the series and also while Theo knew they offered 2.5 to Billy in 2002 (even though he ended up joining Oakland), and then Theo got the job for 335-350,000. I agree about the timing of sundays Shanghnessy article wasnt good, and it came totally from Luccino's viewpoint.

Not a very smart move on the sox's part. We will have to wait and see how it all plays out but stupid to let him walk in my opinion.

Not very smart indeed! Considering the Sox let his assistant walk to the GM job in Arizona last week.
Theo's assistant may have taken over or at least helped in the transition.
