After the 17th one-run loss in the 2025 season, Red Sox manager Alex Cora openly expressed his frustrations about the team's performance. He noted continuous mistakes and a lack of improvement, suggesting it's ultimately his responsibility as the manager to incite change. Analysts from NESN, including Tom Caron and Will Middlebrooks, were surprised by Cora's candid remarks, highlighting his unprecedented openness and calling for fundamental changes in the team's approach to win games. Deven Marrero added that Cora's frustrations stem from his dedication to the basics as an old-school player.
"We keep making the same mistakes. We're not getting better," Cora said after the 4-3 loss in 10 innings to the Angels.
"I've never heard him like that... we're making the same mistakes over and over right now." - Tom Caron, on Cora's recent comments.
"There's a lot to unpack there... expecting it to change. Is that not the definition of insanity?" - Will Middlebrooks, reflecting on Cora's frustrations.
"He really prides himself in his career on doing the little things right. These are crucial" - Deven Marrero on Cora's old-school mentality.
