It remains uncertain whether the Boston Red Sox plan to hire a full-time skipper for the remainder of the campaign, and while that's typically unlikely, it might be possible given they sit at 11-17 and are only 28 games into the year.
Had this been around the All-Star break or after it, I'd say the Red Sox would probably just go with an interim guy for the remainder of the year, which still seems likely, but it's so early right now that anything is honestly possible.
Searching for names to replace Alex Cora after the Red Sox decided to cut ties with him, there was an interesting name recently proposed, with some suggesting that former Chicago Cubs skipper and two-time World Series champion David Ross could be the man for the job.
“The Red Sox should consider all options, and that includes an external candidate like David Ross. He has a relationship with Breslow as the two were teammates with Boston, and Breslow was in the Chicago Cubs' front office when Ross managed that team. Breslow has every reason to consider Ross personally, and Ross' track record as a manager isn't too bad,” Zachary Rotman of FanSided said.
Ross won a World Series with the Red Sox, as they took down the St. Louis Cardinals in six games in 2013.
There's definitely a history there, which is important, but he wasn't exactly great as a manager with the Cubs.
Former Chicago Cubs manager David Ross is being considered as a potential candidate for the Boston Red Sox's managerial position.
The article does not specify the reasons for Alex Cora's departure, but it indicates that the team is exploring new managerial options.
The Boston Red Sox currently have a record of 11-17, having played only 28 games this season.
