TROUSER SNAKE?

APPARENTLY, THE RULES DON'T APPLY

THEO DOES DO 5 YEAR DEALS: FOR THEO

Yankees GM Brian Cashman is telling friends he plans to leave after the season and hopes to land a job with another East Coast club. ... Red Sox GM Theo Epstein, whose contract expires at the season's conclusion, declined a two-year, $1.9 million extension. He is seeking a five-year deal that could make him the highest-paid general manager in the game. ...USA TODAY

Is the Sox success a product of Theo, or is Theo a product of the Sox SABRmetrics system? Methinks perhaps it is a bit of both. Like the Patriots, the system is in place, and will continue to function with somewhat interchangeable parts. 'Nuff said, I would like Theo to stay. At this point, the Sox should do unto Theo as the triumvirate do unto the players: Wait and see how he does in his salary drive season, offer him a 2 year deal that seems palatable to the media and public, but is actually below market value. I bet he holds out for more years and more cash. When he has agreed in principle to a deal with the Yankees, go above and beyond with a belated spin doctor offer... Oh, the hypocrisy...
