Theo and Co. will talk baseball this weekend

Posted by David Lefort, Boston.com Staff January 3, 2008 03:16 PM

There hasn't been much Red Sox news to discuss over the last couple of weeks, but this weekend's Hot Stove, Cool Music roundtable should provide some lively Sox talk.

On Saturday afternoon from 12:30-3 p.m., some of the biggest names in baseball will converge at the State Street Pavilion at Fenway Park to talk with fans. Among those scheduled to appear are Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein, Yankees GM Brian Cashman, Blue Jays GM J.P. Ricciardi, agent Scott Boras, ESPN analyst Peter Gammons, and statistician Bill James. Also appearing will be Celtics co-owner Steve Pagliuca and Bruins great Cam Neely. (Gammons confirmed the inclusion of Cashman and Boras during a Boston.com chat today.)

Epstein, Pagliuca, Neely, and others kick the session off with a conversation on "building a winning enterprise." The good stuff follows with an "inside baseball" talk that includes Epstein, Boras, Gammons, and fellow GMs Cashman and Ricciardi.

The event kicks off a weekend of Hot Stove, Cool Music events that will culminate in a concert Sunday night at the Paradise. All proceeds will benefit Epstein's Foundation to be Named Later. Click here for a full schedule of events and information on purchasing tickets to any of them.

Check back here on Saturday afternoon for updates from the roundtable discussion.
