Boston Red Sox owner John Henry and GM Sam Kennedy addressed the media at spring training on Sunday and while a variety of topics were touched upon, the elephant in the room was of course Mookie Betts. Unsurprisingly, the two men were asked what the thought process was behind trading away the Red Sox most talented and popular player and the answers ranged from reasonable to unbelievable (in the literal sense of the word).
When asked about trading Mookie and David Price to the Dodgers, Henry and Kennedy gave the expected answers about appreciating what both players accomplished in Boston and never wanting to be in the position of trading a talent like Betts away.
