Alex Cora Says Red Sox Clubhouse Isn't Divided Over White House Trip

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora says his team is not divided despite the fact that nearly every player of color will not be in attendance when the team visits the White House on Thursday.

Several members of the World Series champions and Cora have said they will not go for various reasons.

"That’s not the case. That’s not the case,” Cora said to WEEI. . “We’re in a good place."

Cora, himself, said he is opting out of the trip due to President Donald Trump and the government handling of the aftermath of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, a storm that killed near 3,000 people.
