John Henry Quotes

«There never was a power struggle between Larry and Theo. It was simply mythology. I can assure you as we move forward that Larry?s role has not changed at all, and no general manager in baseball could ask for more autonomy than Theo has.»
Author: John Henry
«I have certainly made mistakes in the past by not being more assertive when bumps in the road appeared. Larry, Theo and other managers in the organization do not need me in order to excel at what they do, but I have a responsibility to ensure that divergent views and our overall direction lead to a better and stronger organization. We've averaged winning more than 95 games a year since we purchased the club. We've listened to the fans and improved the fan experience greatly. We have provided excitement during the season as well as the off-season.»
Author: John Henry
«People sometimes disagree. I don't think you can have healthy relationships without disagreements and an organization is not going to evolve beyond mediocrity without them. This is not the same organization that Theo left. There was enough discord then to give Theo legitimate reasons to move on.»
Author: John Henry
«We work together as an organization damned well and have a strong sense of humor about much of what goes on around us - thankfully. The media has been in much more turmoil over the Red Sox than has been the case internally.»
Author: John Henry
«They knew going in that it was very likely Theo was coming back and this was a way to keep things on the same set of tracks.»
Author: John Henry
«Despite the attempts of some to portray Theo's return as a win for someone and a loss for someone else, this is a win-win situation. As Theo said in his press conference on Nov. 2, and as we have all repeated, there never was a power struggle between Larry and Theo. It was simply mythology. I can assure you as we move forward that Larry's role has not changed at all, and no general manager in baseball could ask for more autonomy than Theo has. This has never been an issue for us - only in the media.»
Author: John Henry
«Ben and Jed accepted the GM roles on an interim basis with the expectation that [it] was likely Theo would be returning to the club at some point. They enabled us to move forward on a business-as-unusual basis, acting in the best interests of the Boston Red Sox. We agreed with them before they accepted their new positions as to what their ensuing positions would be, so this is hardly a demotion.»
Author: John Henry
«We have succeeded in gaining a lot of flexibility going forward. That bodes well for the future. It is something we haven't had a lot of.»
Author: John Henry
«Baseball has to address the disincentives created by large-scale transfers of revenue from successful clubs to less successful clubs. At high enough tax levels, the incentive is to invest somewhere other than in baseball.»
Author: John Henry
«(Selig) may have, in fact, saved the industry from itself by acting to limit debt.»
Author: John Henry
