What audacity or plain foolishness to even contemplate such nonsense as firing Red Sox Manager Alex Cora. Cora’s magnificent managerial escapades where tantamount to a player being a combination of Walter Johnson, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays.
Cora may not have received the coveted Manager of the Year Award, but sometimes the best of Broadway don’t get a Tony Award or a splendid film is tossed an Academy Award Best Film shutout. Cora did it all. A steady clubhouse, fantastic roster manipulation, and dashing through the playoffs without even a speed bump – but he will be fired.
