Felger & Mazz: How Bad Did The Red Sox Mess Up Theo's Compensation?
Felger and Bertrand were joined bu Jermaine Wiggins to talk about the Boston Red Sox and the Theo Epstein compensation from the Chicago Cubs.
The Red Sox received Cubs minor league pitcher Chris Carpenter. In 9.2 innings pitched last year, Carpenter had a 2.79 ERA. How bad did the Sox handle this compensation deal?
Could the Red Sox have taken advantage of the Cubs, if they played a little hardball?
Should the Red Sox have held on to Theo until the compensation was reached? Did the Sox lose all their leverage once Theo left?
