Boston Red Sox’ Front Office Member Reportedly Not Interested in Commissioner’s Job
Theo Epstein, the executive who brought the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs World Series championships in the 2000s, reportedly is not interested in becoming the next Commissioner of Baseball.
That report came from Bob Nightengale of USA Today on Sunday:
Morgan Sword, MLB’s vice president, business operations, is among the leading candidates to become baseball’s next commissioner when Rob Manfred retires in January, 2029, several MLB owners privately say.
Sword, 39, who works primarily in baseball’s on-field matters, is highly respected by owners and executives throughout the game.
The other top candidates expected to be under serious consideration among owners are deputy commissioners Dan Halem and Noah Garden, and Chris Marinek, chief operations and strategy officer.
Theo Epstein, the future Hall of Fame executive who helped end the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs’ World Series droughts, has no interest in the job and still hopes to become an owner.
After doing some work with Major League Baseball over the last few years, Epstein has come back to take a role in within the Fenway Sports Group. That gives him access to the Red Sox in an advisory capacity, but he reportedly isn’t making decisions for the team baseball-wise.
Epstein was named the Red Sox general manager in 2002 and held the position until after the 2011 season, winning two World Series titles. He then went to the Cubs, winning a title in 2016 and then worked for Major League Baseball, helping implement some of the new rules we saw in 2023.

Gray, acquired in a November trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, was one of Boston’s key rotation additions, along with Ranger Suarez, in the offseason. He was 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA in 2025.
“He’s very specific about his work. Every day has a purpose,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said of Gray. “Two hundred strikeouts, that’s something that we were looking for. The competitor. Every five days, this guy is going to give you everything.”
In his five career appearances against the Reds, Gray is 1-3 with a 4.18 ERA.
“It’s pretty much one of the only things that is continuing to push me, is to get to a World Series, to win a World Series, to pitch in big games,” said Gray. “I love the moment, and I am chasing that moment.”
