From the looks of things, John Henry liked this team a lot too. That is probably the most important thing.
There's a lot to like here from everybody. Everyone seems to get along and IMO most of the credit for that goes to Alex Cora. Cora was able to convey to the players that he'd cover their asses no matter what they did and he conveyed to JH that while he (Cora) had his own opinions he also recognized that JH was the guy with the money and therefore the one who could make the hard decisions if push came to shove.

It looked to me like everyone in the FO did exactly what a successful manager should do. They gave Cora all the tools to do a good job and then got out of his way and let him do it.
