Thank you Larry Lucchino

While Theo Epstein is unlikely to head to the Yankees, at least he's opted to walk away from the Red Sox.

And it apparently wasn't about the money, but rather Epstein had grown tired of dealing with Red Sox CEO Larry Lucchino.

The interesting part is that this isn't the first time Epstein has worked for Lucchino and his previous relationship with Lucchino is part of the reason that Epstein was Boston's plan B after A's GM Billy Beane backed out of an agreed to deal to become the Red Sox GM.

It will be interesting to see where the Red Sox go from here. Especially since the #2 guy behind Epstein has just left the organization to become the GM in Arizona.
