"The Boston Red Sox fired manager Alex Cora, hitting coach Peter Fatse, bench coach Ramón Vazquez and game-planning coach Jason Varitek, sources tell ESPN. While the Red Sox won today, they are 10-17 and in last in the American League East."
"Cora got the Red Sox off to a poor start to the season. Even with a win Saturday, Boston is still 10-17 and in last place in the American League East."
"The Red Sox entered the year with playoff aspirations after making the postseason in 2025 and bolstering their pitching depth, but so far that hasn't translated to success."
"Saturday marked a major shift in the Red Sox organization, relieving a former player and World Series-winning manager 27 games into the season."
The Boston Red Sox dismissed manager Alex Cora and most of his coaching staff following a disappointing 10-17 record in the first 27 games of the 2026 season. Former WooSox manager Chad Tracy has been appointed as the interim manager. Despite a win on Saturday, the team remains in last place in the American League East. The Red Sox had playoff aspirations after a successful 2025 season, but offensive struggles have hindered their performance. Major changes are necessary for a turnaround.
