Cubs hire scout Matt Dorey from Red Sox

(文章下方有略翻，另外在底下還有另一則新聞)

When Theo Epstein resigned from his post as general manager of the Red Sox to
become president of baseball operations with the Cubs, it was with an
understanding that there would be no raid on his former Sox baseball
operations staff. Epstein could hire one Sox employee, and it could not be
one of the top-level employees in the department.

And so, according to multiple industry sources, the Cubs ended up hiring Red
Sox area scout Matt Dorey, who had been an evaluator in Louisiana and Texas
(球探)
in the last two years after having started for the club as a Northwest area
scout in 2007, when current Cubs assistant GM Jason McLeod was the Red Sox
director of amateur scouting. Dorey will be promoted to the position of
national crosschecker with the Cubs.

Dorey was considered one of the top evaluators for the Sox, something
reflected both in the key region that he was assigned to cover and in the
fact that he was credited with signing several top Sox picks in recent years.
Among the players credited to Dorey were right-hander Anthony Ranaudo
(sandwich pick, 2010), third baseman Garin Cecchini (2010 fourth round),
outfielder Kendrick Perkins (2010 sixth round) and Lucas LeBlanc (2010 11th
round), a group in which the Sox invested nearly $5 million in one draft.

Dorey is the second prominent Sox amateur scout to be hired away in recent
days. Danny Haas, who had been the Sox’ East Coast crosschecker, was hired
last week as an Orioles national crosschecker.

The Cubs have also hired former Red Sox pro scout Kyle Evans, but that was
not a violation of the agreement given that Evans already was leaving the
Sox. And Epstein and the Cubs may also try to hire former Red Sox VP of
international scouting and player personnel Craig Shipley, who has parted
ways with the Sox after having been replaced last month as the Sox’ director
of international scouting. Shipley was one of the first front office hires by
Epstein when he became Sox GM in 2002.

略翻:

Theo只能挖一定層級以下的人，而且只能挖一個。

最終他挖了Dorey，Dorey簽過的人如以上所示。

小熊另外也挖了前紅襪球探Kyle Evans，但是因為他已經離開紅襪了所以不在該合約的

限制範圍之內。
