Prominent Free Agents: Shane Andrews, 3B Carlos Baerga, IF Frank Castillo, RHP Tony Clark, 1B Cliff Floyd, OF Rickey Henderson, OF Dustin Hermanson, RHP Rey Sanchez, IF Ugueth Urbina, RHP The Red Sox's search for a general manager continues as the team's hopes for landing A's architect Billy Beane came up a bit short. It wasn't Boston's fault, as the team pulled out all the stops in their attempt to land one of the most respected minds in the game. As if deciding on a general manager was not a big enough issue, Boston had to deal with a rumor - reportedly coming out of Seattle - that the Red Sox were interested in free agent manager Dusty Baker. That necessitated a statement in which the club professed its appreciation for current skipper Grady Little. Add in the fact that the club has taken some heat for not making a run at Massachusetts native Tom Glavine and it hasn't been a good opening month of the offseason for the Red Sox.
