Theo Epstein perplexes me because he spends copious amounts of money, but it doesn't really seem that way. He finds a lot of "bargains" or takes risk on players that aren't exactly superstars.
They haven't signed the Sabbathias, Texieras, or Arods. They didn't go out and replace Manny's salary with another huge bat.
He general manages like the GM of a smaller team does, but does so with a lot of money and spends it in strange places.

Sometimes he's incredible, and other times I just scratch my head. The team is currently a mess.
