By now everyone’s heard that the Boston Red Sox are parting ways with manager John Farrell. The embattled manager was at the helm of the Sox for five seasons, winning a World Series in the first year of his tenure and making the playoffs as division winners the past two seasons. Still, postseason disappointment and clubhouse friction (hello, David Price!) seems to have cost Farrell his job.
Joe Girardi, meanwhile, has been leading the Yankees on the field for a decade, while experiencing varying degrees of success with various levels of true talent teams.
