It seems like some felt the Boston Red Sox could move on from Alex Cora, but they didn't necessarily expect them to do so when they did it.
Sitting at 11-17 now, the Red Sox were 10-17 before making the move, and while it's very early in the season, the expectations were a lot higher than how they were playing.
For skippers around the league, this is just another reminder that things can change in the blink of an eye. The Red Sox were expected to be among the best teams in Major League Baseball this season, like the Toronto Blue Jays, but they just haven't been.
The Blue Jays and Red Sox are in different positions, but that didn't stop skipper John Schneider from speaking about what happened and how he felt about it.
âIâm surprised. I got a lot of respect for AC. I think everyone does around the league for what heâs accomplished. You always hate seeing it happen,â Schneider said, per Sportsnet.
All of these guys understand that it's a business at the end of the day, and it's unfortunate to see things like this happen. This is one of the ugly sides of the game, but again, something that can happen to anybody, including guys like Schneider, who were just in a World Series a year ago.
