On the onset of the 2006 season, Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig announced a radical change in the way baseball would be played. He announced that all of the players currently contracted for a team would be thrown into a pool, and randomly signed to a team with the same contract that they would get. As expected, Donald Fehr lodged an immediate and loud objection. However, Donald Fehr was found dead in his home with a note in his hand: "pwned by the blode". Now the Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein was furious with Commisioner Selig's radical change. He immediately announced his resignation from his post in the Red Sox front office. Left without any other options, the Red Sox started a mail contest to become the next Red Sox GM with a 5 year contract worth 5 million dollars. A 19-year old boy known only as "the blode" won the contest and immediately stepped in as Red Sox GM. This is his story.
