One of the names that Red Sox fans had been hearing a good deal about over the last couple months was Jerry Dipoto. After leaving his post as general manager of the Anaheim Angels on July 1st following a much discussed rocky relationship with manager Mike Scioscia, Dipoto was hired by Boston to be a consultant tasked with primarily evaluating minor leaguers and prospects within the organization. While it’s difficult for an outsider to truly grasp the job Dipoto did, all indications from those within the organization suggested that he brought a good deal of knowledge with him and was doing a stellar job.
