That article to me reads like a complete hatchet job, which FSG are known for doing whenever a Red Sox manager is fired/leaves so it's not really surprising

Rodgers can be blamed for the tactics, for thinking he can outsmart other managers and for embarrassing the club with the things he said. But to pin transfers on him and the other stuff the writer does makes it sound like it John Henry listed out bullet points for him to hit.
While true, it sounds like FSG instituted the transfer committee because Rodgers screwed up the first few transactions of his tenure.
