Theo Epstein has always had his sights set on bigger things, moving up the ladder as a curse-breaking baseball executive in Boston and Chicago before reshaping the game as part of the league office. Many believed he even had political aspirations, but it turns out he can’t quit baseball or the Red Sox. As reported by Brendan Coffey of Sportico, Epstein is returning to his old stomping grounds as a part owner and senior advisor of Fenway Sports Group.
“It’s a great honor, something I’m really excited about,” Epstein told Sportico in a video call.
