I guess it's two quite different questions.
Should be managing, as in the very best option to lead the Sox to the playoffs?
Will be managing, in terms of how much rope he has if the next two seasons were to go south in similar fashion to 2013...which is unlikely to happen with Abreu's presence alone unless Sale were to be on the shelf for an extended time. Then all bets would be off. But having Rodon could make up for that, as well. And whatever players we can bring in as FA's. Healthy Avisail for the entire season, etc.
all bets are off because who the hell knows what this roster will look like 3 years from now. It will most likely have far different needs than what you see right now
