About this episode

Red Sox Fire Manager Alex Cora After Disappointing Start: Chad Tracy Takes Over

The Boston Red Sox have parted ways with manager Alex Cora following a 17-1 loss to the Orioles, leaving them at the bottom of the AL East with a 10-17 record. Cora, who led the team to a World Series victory in 2018, was replaced on an interim basis by Chad Tracy from Triple-A Worcester. Despite Coras past successes, the team has struggled since the sign-stealing scandal, with no playoff series wins and back-to-back last-place finishes. Owner John Henry praised Coras impact but made a tough call, also cutting five coaches, including the hitting coach and bench coach. The roster rebuild has been challenging, with the loss of stars like Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts, and the trade of Chris Sale and Rafael Devers. Third base has been a particular issue, with Caleb Durbin hitting just one home run so far. Chad Tracy, with a solid Triple-A track record, takes over, hoping to spark a turnaround for the struggling team.
