Theo Epstein Is Back in the Saddle As the Red Sox General Manager
Henry, Werner, Lucchino, Epstein, Hoyer, Cherington, and Joint Statements: The Comeback Kid Returns
"We work together as an organization damned well and have a strong sense of humor about much of what goes on around us – thankfully." -- 1.24.06, John Henry, Principal Owner, Boston Red Sox

HERALD: THEO TO RETURN ... AS GENERAL MANAGER
"The Red Sox are poised to announce Theo Epstein’s return as the general manager of the Red Sox, with roughly the same powers, authority and autonomy he had when he left on Oct. 31."
"...There is, according to sources both on and off the ballclub, a less complicated rationale for Epstein’s return. He has now become convinced that the work environment has improved to the point where there is more listening, more cooperation and more of an ability to compromise when there are differences."
"The team has been disinclined to hold a press conference announcing Epstein’s return, fearing a free-for-all atmosphere that would wind up making the front office’s tumultuous period of nearly three months even more of a distraction than it already has been." -- 1.24.06, Michael Silverman, Boston Herald

Bradford: Crisp Taking Rumors in Stride
"'I am a center fielder and I am a leadoff hitter,' said Crisp, who entered professional baseball as a second baseman. 'As far as leading off, I've been doing it my whole life.'"
"'I was facing Pedro (Martinez) for the first time, playing my first game in Boston,' said Crisp. 'My first at-bat I hit a double off of him, almost hitting a home run. That was a fond memory.
"'But then my next at-bat I remember thinking there was no way he was going to throw another fastball, but of course he does because there is no way Pedro is afraid of Coco Crisp. I was like, man, look at him throwing that again. And he strikes me out. The game ended up getting rained out so my 1 for 2 off of Pedro was wiped out. That was too bad.'" -- 1.24.06, Coco Crisp to Rob Bradford, Eagle-Tribune
