Red Sox manager Terry Francona announced today something he has known since May: He will undergo back surgery this offseason, most likely in the coming weeks. He’s going to see a doctor today to determine when he will have the operation and precisely what it will be.
This season was a physically draining one for Francona, with a trip to Japan and the Manny Ramirez saga piled on to the usual viper pit that is managing the Sox. He’s looking forward to taking care of that, starting the evaluation process, and taking in some of the World Series. Maybe. “I don’t know,” he said, cracking a thin smile. “If ‘Prison Break’ isn’t on.”
I love Tito. “If ‘Prison Break’ isn’t on” really made me laugh.

Our hearts, minds, and prayers are with you Francona.
from bs’s family (my dad also had back surgery roughly a decade ago)
Speaking of back issues, any news on JD possibly having surgery? Or is it a healing injury?
