Larry Lucchino: the Red Sox are striving to do something “bold” at the
trade deadline
That Carl Crawford-to-the-Marlins rumor from yesterday was shot down in
approximately 15 seconds, but that doesn’t mean the Red Sox aren’t still
trying to do something bold. That they are, says team president Larry
Lucchino:
“I think that (general manager) Ben (Cherington) feels empowered to do it, I
think he has the capacity to do it, when he took the job and in fact since
then we have talked frequently about boldness. You’ve got to know when to be
bold and when to be somewhat conservative and methodical. This is a club
(that) has been built on bold moves over the years, going way back to the
Nomar Garciaparra trade in ’04 as one example.”
Personally, if I wanted to “empower” my GM I probably wouldn’t be out
giving expectation-raising interviews about the kinds of moves the team will
make at the deadline, but I obviously don’t have as much experience in
creating organizational harmony as Lucchino does.
