The Boston Red Sox have named their next leader of all baseball operations, but they didn’t do so without considering the opinions of some of the team’s former leaders on the diamond.
According to WEEI’s Rob Bradford, the Red Sox consulted David Ortiz, Pedro Martinez, Brock Holt, Dustin Pedroia, and Kevin Youkilis during the search for their new top baseball executive. The favorite amongst them was reportedly Craig Breslow, who ended up winning the job.
