The Boston Red Sox are reportedly interviewing Arizona Diamondbacks bench coach Luis Urueta for their vacant managerial position.

According to Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes (h/t MassLive.com's Christopher Smith), the interview will take place Friday over the phone.

The Red Sox have been without a manager since Jan. 14 when they parted ways with Alex Cora, who was named as a person of involvement in the 2017 Houston Astros' sign-stealing scandal when he was the team's bench coach.

MLB is also investigating the Red Sox for illegally using their video replay room to steal signs while Cora was their manager in 2018.
