But Dan Shaughnessy doesn't think Epstein's slow rebuilding style would've worked in Boston the way it has in Chicago.

"It's hard to do here. The Cubs have been dreadful for three years, losing 90-100 games three years in a row," explained Shaughnessy. "Theo on a six-year plan with a $19 million contract, that's pretty easy to do that. I'm going to sat Boston wouldn't tolerate what Chicago went through to get here."
