The Boston Red Sox have fired manager Alex Cora, hitting coach Peter Fatse, bench coach Rámon Vazquez, and game-planning coach Jason Varitek, according to sources via ESPN.
The massive organizational overhaul comes despite the Red Sox winning their game on Saturday. The team has struggled to a 10-17 start this season, leaving them in last place in the American League East. The decision to part ways with Cora and three key members of his staff signals a significant shift for the franchise following their disappointing opening month.
Alex Cora, who famously led the Red Sox to a World Series championship in 2018, is out alongside his primary assistants as the front office looks to move in a new direction. The club has not yet announced interim replacements for the vacated roles or a timeline for a permanent managerial search.
