Frank Wren, the general manager who was fired Sept. 22, 2014, and whose works the Braves have moved heaven and earth to undo, is widely considered the leading candidate to become GM of the Red Sox, one of the sport’s flagship clubs. Weird, huh?
In a personal sense, not really. Dave Dombrowski was just named Boston’s president of baseball operations. Wren worked with Dombrowski in Montreal and Miami. They’re pals. But would Wren-to-Fenway, even as a No. 2 man, make baseball sense?
