It's May 1st, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Boston Red Sox News today, AI-powered updates on your squad. The Boston Red Sox are sitting at 12 wins and 19 losses, deadlass in the American League East, and they're one of baseball's biggest disappointments right now. Earlier this week, they shocked everyone by firing manager Alex Cora and seven coaches with front office chief Craig Breslow pointing fingers at poor, player development. It all stems from roster moves gone wrong, like trading star Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants after position battles and whiffing on, resigning Alex Bregman who inked a five-year deal with the Chicago Cubs instead. Players and fans are fired up, questioning why prospects thrive elsewhere but flop in Boston. Sources say the development program lacks structure, turning a promising young core into underperformers while Cora got scapegoated for deeper friends. Office flaws Now, with Bregman gone, they're leaning hard on 21-year-old Roman Anthony as their
offense spark after just 72 big league games, but he's hitting only 208 with a 631 OPS. Add in weak spots from guys like Caleb Durvin, Trevor Story, and Jaren Dern, and the bats are ice cold and hit her friendly Finway Park. They pivot to pitching in defense, but that word for San Francisco in a pitcher's paradise, not here. Tonight, rookie Jake Bennett debuts against the Houston Astros at 7-10pm, Eastern hoping to spark some life before this season slips away, completely.
