Red Sox News
The Boston Red Sox are in turmoil after the stunning firing of Alex Cora, with chief baseball officer Craig Breslow seemingly looking to deflect internal criticism by scapegoating the former manager. With a dismal 10-17 record, including a lackluster 2-5 week, the decision to appoint Chad Tracy as interim manager raises eyebrows even as fans cling to hope for revitalization. On the field, promising rookie Marcelo Mayer should see more action against lefties, but can a managerial shakeup really change the team's fortunes? Meanwhile, Trevor Story's comments indicate a growing concern about the direction of this franchise, leaving fans to wonder whether the last night's 17-1 demolition of the Orioles was merely an anomaly in an otherwise troubling season. With key players like Willson Contreras and Wilyer Abreu showing flashes of brilliance, the stakes are high as the Red Sox try to chart a new course.
