He had also interviewed with the Boston Red Sox for their vacant managerial position.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sveum will enter the newly restructured Cubs organization that has Theo Epstein as president of baseball operations and Jed Hoyer as general manager. The three were seen walking out of Sveum\u2019s hotel Thursday afternoon, but Epstein did not offer confirmation of the reported deal.\nSveum served as the Brewers' interim manager in 2008 after Ned Yost was fired. In that stint he led Milwaukee to a 7-5 regular season record and a four-game loss to the Phillies in the Division Series.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
