Theo Epstein

Theo Nathaniel Epstein (born December 29, 1973) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) executive who currently serves as a senior advisor and part-owner of Fenway Sports Group, which owns the Boston Red Sox of MLB and Liverpool F.C. of the English Premier League, among other properties. In his executive career, Epstein helped to end two of the longest World Series droughts in MLB history. In 2004, when he was vice president and general manager for the Red Sox, the team won their first World Series championship in 86 years. His next job was president of baseball operations for the Chicago Cubs, who in 2016 won their first World Series championship in 108 years. After his tenure in Chicago, he joined MLB as a consultant.
