Re: One of my friends thinks Theo Epstein is an overated GM.
Also, I wouldn't give up on Marte just yet. There were only six players his age who hit more HR's than he did in AAA THIS YEAR and his Ks are manageable. He's not the #1 overall prospect like he was hyped up at the time, but then he was never that. He's still got a good chance to be a very good big league regular. It's a matter of someone giving him regular playing time for 600 AB so we can figure out exactly what he's going to be. Cleveland should probably let Blake walk and give Marte a full look in 2008.
