The real opportunity for success lies within the person and not in the job - Zig Ziglar

Farrell knows the players, organization and fans, and they know him. There is far less risk/more reward with this decision than "he who must not be named."

I consider myself a rabid Red Sox fan. I'm not crazy about a pitching coach being promoted to a manager BUT, I'm willing to get behind this decision. The people make sense, and if he can get the pitching settled and positioned for future success the Red Sox will have flexibility. Why not try something different this time. He is well respected top to bottom in the organization, and that is a great start.
