Default Re: Red Sox Nation -Check In

Its a shame....I liked Tito...he lived not far from me when he was with the Phillies...I guess he "lost" the clubhouse...tough to manage when you can't get thru to your players....From his statement:

"We met this morning to look back on the 2011 season and to consider the future of the Boston Red Sox, including my involvement with the club. I passed along my frustrations at my inability to effectively reach the players. After many conversations and much consideration, I ultimately felt that, out of respect to this team, it was time for me to move on," Francona said.

"I've always maintained that it is not only the right, but the obligation, of ownership to have the right person doing this job. I told them that out of my enormous respect for this organization and the people in it, they may need to find a different voice to lead the team."


There will be some more house-cleaning, no doubt....there are a lot pf good pieces there, just need someone to put the puzzle together...
