The Red Sox announced today that John Farrell will not return as the club's manager for the 2018 season.
Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski:
I thought it was the appropriate time to make a change for the betterment of the organization moving forward. You weigh a lot of different things to come into play. You watch day in, day out over a season. You come up with a decision based upon that. And for me, at this point, sometimes change can be better. That's why we've decided to move forward with the change.
