An expression that has been handed down for centuries is “A craftsman is only as good as his tools.” I am sure that applies to the construction of an ancient Mesopotamian ziggurat or even a baseball team such as the Boston Red Sox. The craftsman is manager Alex Cora and his tools are supplied by the baseball hierarchy with the president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski is a version of Stanley tools of baseball flesh.
A craftsman most certainly must have skills to maximize the tools given and based on 2018 I would apply the term “Master” in front of Cora’s craftsman title.
