Alex Cora out as Boston Red Sox manager in wake of sign-stealing investigation
Cora continued flouting the rules by using electronic surveillance from the replay room to steal signs during the 2018 season when he was named Red Sox manager, according to a report by The Athletic. The Red Sox's 108-win season culminated with a World Series title, and MLB has been investigating the team's alleged malpractice; the investigation is still a couple of weeks from wrapping up.“Today we met to discuss the Commissioner’s report related to the Houston Astros investigation.
Said Cora: “I want to thank John, Tom, Sam, the players, our coaching staff and the entire Red Sox organization. I especially want to thank my family for their love and support. A memo sent from MLB Chief Baseball Officer Joe Torre during the 2017-2018 offseason was ultimately Cora's undoing.
