In 2004, Terry Francona achieved a career-defining moment when he managed the Boston Red Sox to their first World Series title since 1918, effectively ending the infamous 'Curse of the Bambino.' Under his leadership, the team staged an unprecedented comeback against the New York Yankees in the ALCS after being down three games to none, eventually sweeping the St.
Louis Cardinals in the World Series.
This victory was not only a monumental achievement for Francona but also a historic moment for Red Sox fans who had waited generations to see their team crowned champions again.

Trade news: The Chicago White Sox are acquiring veteran right-hander Jordan Hicks and right-handed pitching prospect David Sandlin in a trade with the Boston Red Sox, sources tell ESPN. The Red Sox will receive a pitching prospect in return.
Good that Hicks is gone. I just hope the dump cost doesn't end up being too high.
Edit: They had to swallow a fair chunk of money, which will count over 2 seasons, and had to trade the better prospect.
So.... No bueno, but at least it's just a low level error admission.
This is what happens when you lie to your best player for months, have to deal with the fallout of that, and then, as a result, have an owner who's looking to pinch every penny get just the right excuse to move on from that high priced player.
