Why the hell not?

He might want it. He likes Chicago. Jed is his drinking buddy. So they can hang out again.

Jerry is gonna sell the team on 3 years according to Steve stone’s twitter. So you tell Theo to get a World Series in 3 years.

Christ, he’s the best candidate. Jerry should give it to him. If he says no, fine. But he should be the target.

Could be another notch for Theo. He did the Red Sox and cubs with their curses. Now he can get two in one city with 2 teams.

Considering where they are at right now, this is not the worst idea in the world.

You need to go Billy Beane style. Maybe Hahn was an attempt at that but it seemed like he tried to Epstein his way back to the WS. If you're the discount team in the city you need to have a discount approach to roster building.

Nor is Beane or any other person who is currently in the top baseball position for a small market team. The Sox are basically a half step up from a place like Tampa or Milwaukee. The Sox are going to have to hire someone who is a GM under a president of baseball opps or someone lower down the totem pole.

Family man. Quit acting to be close to his kids.

Yeah. He might say no. But Reinsdorf needs to put on the charm in the interview. I think Reinsdorf has respect from Theo. He knows how loyal he has been to his employees for the most part. Kenny and Rick had jobs for a couple of decades with mostly bad seasons.

Epstein wants to be commissioner

Yeah. But this new comish has only had the job for 5 or 6 years. Owners like him. So he has to kill time before this one leaves.

Plus I don't think the owners would want Theo as Comish. They're the ones that decide it.

He was so stinking cute. I bet he's aging well. I can't tell if he's a dipshit or not, he might make a good commissioner.

Professor Harold Hill Epstein was paid a lot of money to create a problem with baseball and is now being paid a lot of money to solve that problem. He ain't leaving River City
