TORONTO -- The Red Sox are still in the process of finding a new pitching coach, but a new hire could be in place at some point during the team's three-game series against the Blue Jays this weekend.
"We don't have an announcement yet to make, we're working through some logistics. We would hope to have an announcement sometime later tomorrow," Red Sox manager John Farrell said on Friday.
But for at least Friday and Saturday's games, Farrell himself will be making all trips to the mound.
The club dismissed former pitching coach Juan Nieves on Thursday.
