PrintTerry Francona finally gets that extension he deserved. He is now signed through 2011, with club options for 2012 and 2013. The deal is said to be about 3 to 4 million a year, which makes francona one of the highest paid managers.
IMO, this is a great move. Tito did a hell of a job as manager last season, especially in the postseason, and he certainly has the players' respect.

Yes, yes, yes.
I'm glad he's around for 3-5 more years. He and the FO work together really well (and have two rings to show for it). He fits in perfectly with the team.

Isnt he the -or one of the first- managers to win his first 8 Series games?
