Felger & Mazz: Is Francona Going To Be Sox Manager Next Season?
Felger & Massarotti opened the day discussing on what's been going on with the Boston Red Sox and the front office.
Earlier today, Peter Gammons had mentioned, on the Dan Patrick Show, that there may be issues between Red Sox manager Terry Francona and general manager Theo Epstein. Is there a disconnect between manager and g.m.? Is Francona's job on the line, if the Red Sox come up short? Where is the leadership on this team?
Francona has a next year option on his contract, why hasn't the front office decided to pick up the option?
If the Sox blow it, how will management explain it to the fans? What changes could be made? Could Theo leave for the Chicago Cubs front office?
