In the wake of Alex Cora’s firing on Tuesday night, the Red Sox clubhouse was thrown into chaos. With only one month until pitchers and catchers report to Ft. Myers, the Sox now find themselves needing to figure out who is going to lead this increasingly sinking ship.
Many seem to think they’ll simply elevate bench coach Ron Roenicke to the interim manager spot for the season and then clean house and allow Chaim Bloom to pick his own guy in 2021. However, there is a very vocal faction of Red Sox fans who have been clamoring for two familiar faces instead: Jason Varitek and Dustin Pedroia.
