Theo Epstein is the Executive of the year. He has given up so very little in the last year and he has Bill Mueller, Kevin Millar, David Ortiz, Scott Williamson, Jeff Suppan, Todd Jones....
Incredible. For the first time since Mike Greenwell patroled the outfield, I'm actually afraid of Boston.
For the past 10 years, I've basically believed 3 things:
The Yankees will do whatever it takes to win
Yankee-bashers will whine about them doing it
Boston will disappoint in a variety of ways
The Yanks are still doing what it takes
The bashers have whined
NOW--Boston is joining the fun and doing whatever it takes to win.
I'm thrilled with the change. If we can have the excitement of 1978, this will be an incredible fall.
