Ex-Red Sox Skipper Alex Cora Landing New Job Considered 'All But a Done Deal'
The former Red Sox manager now will have a chance to manage elsewhere if things go as planned.
The Boston Red Sox have had significant success under interim skipper Chad Tracy, but the team is now considering hiring Alex Cora as their next head coach. Cora, a sought-after manager in Major League Baseball, has been linked to the Philadelphia Phillies, with reports suggesting the deal is all but a done deal. His familiarity with Phillies executive Dave Dombrowski suggests the move is highly likely.
Cora's strong job security at the Phillies could be influenced by the team's aging stars and the competitive National League. Despite the Red Sox's recent success, they now face a decision on whether to give Tracy a second chance or pursue a more experienced head coach.
