Theo's work with the Cubs is far more impressive than his work with the Red Sox when he inherited a loaded 93-win team with Manny Ramirez, Pedro Martinez, Johnny Damon and Jason Varitek. Pretty much the entire Cubs team has been built by him. I can't name a single key guy left over from the Hendry regime. It's been a brilliant run.

quote:Don't forget Jason McCleod. Two of the biggest moves made by these two were trading Andrew Cashner for Anthony Rizzo and acquiring Jake Arrieta (and key bullpen arm Pedro Strop) from the Orioles for Steve Clevenger and Scott Feldman. What an unbelievable job they've done since then, compiling talent upon talent in the minors in not only revamping the talent pool but reinventing the organization's approach in defense, offense and pitching.

They should also get credit for bringing over Chris Bosio, who should get a shite ton of credit for his work with Jake Arrieta, Jason Hammel, Kyle Hendricks, Pedro Strop, Hector Rondon and Justin Grim (and to lesser extents Trevor Cahill, Travis Wood and Clayton Richard).
