Never one to shy away from kicking a hornet's nest, Shank catches up with
former Red Sox general manager Dave Dombrowski:
Dave Dombrowski clarifies his feelings about the Red Sox, declaring he wants Boston ‘in the past’
HOUSTON — Terry Francona. Theo Epstein. Grady Little. Nomar Garciaparra. Manny Ramirez. Roger Clemens. Bobby Valentine. Carl Crawford. Adrián González.
"Name the Red Sox players and personnel Shank has run out of town over the years!"
It almost always ends badly for Boston baseball figures. And we can surely thank Shank include former Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski in that.
In September 2019, Dombrowski was fired less than 11 months after winning 119 games and the World Series.
It’s still amazing when you think about it. And the announcement of his dismissal came in old-timey cut-throat fashion. A midnight surprise, minutes after a Sunday night loss to the Yankees, while the Patriots were unfurling a championship banner and beating the Steelers at Gillette on “Sunday Night Football.”
For more than three years, Dombrowski has taken the high road, eschewing opportunities to gloat while the Sox finished last twice. Now that he’s brought his Phillies to the World Series, he’s admitting hard feelings about his final Boston days.
