  "textContent": "BOSTON: Boston Red Sox’s disappointing 10–17 start to the season has left them at the bottom of the AL East and triggered a major organisational shake-up, with the franchise parting ways with manager Alex Cora and several members of his coaching staff.\n\nSpeaking after the decision, head of baseball operations Craig Breslow described the move as a “fresh start” for the team, stressing that with 135 games still remaining, the Red Sox still have time to turn their season around and push for a division and postseason run.\n\n> \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView this post on Instagram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n>\n> A post shared by Baseball (@mlbelites_)\n\n\n\n\n“It really comes down to the belief that we have in the players,” Breslow said, adding that the changes were made to “find solutions” and reset the team’s direction.\n\nCora’s exit marks the end of a long tenure that included a 2018 World Series title and a 620–541 record over more than seven seasons. Along with him, several coaches including Peter Fatse, Dillon Lawson, Joe Cronin, Ramón Vázquez and Kyle Hudson were also dismissed as part of the overhaul.\n\nChad Tracy, previously manager of Triple-A Worcester, has been promoted as interim manager to lead the struggling side moving forward.\n\n> \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView this post on Instagram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n>\n> A post shared by Dugout Report ⚾️ (@dugoutreport)\n\n\n\n\nBoston’s poor start (10–17) has also highlighted deeper issues, with the team ranking near the bottom in key offensive and defensive metrics, including home runs, OPS, and defensive efficiency. The pitching staff has also underperformed despite high-profile names like Garrett Crochet and Ranger Suárez.\n\nDespite the setbacks, Breslow insisted the organisation still believes in its roster and expects improvement, while CEO Sam Kennedy backed the decision, calling it a “new beginning” for the franchise.\n\nThe post Boston’s poor start 10–17 leaves side bottom of AL East, sparks overhaul appeared first on HUM News English.",
