On August 13 Red Sox team President Sam Kennedy made a seemingly innocuous radio appearance on the “The Greg Hill Show.” This is not an unusual thing for a team president to do, but what spiked the anxiety of Red Sox fans everywhere was when he told Hill what we are all too aware of following the trade of Mookie Betts: No player is “untouchable.”
Maybe this statement should have come with a trigger warning considering the fact that I still can’t scroll through my Twitter timeline without seeing a handful of sad/whiny comments about the Betts trade.
