What do I do then?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span>This is where the Red Sox find themselves as they lurch into the middle third of their sorry season. Fenway Sports Group and Craig Breslow nuked face-of-the-franchise manager Alex Cora and six of his coaches after merely 27 games of the 2026 season. Now that the Red Sox look even worse, it\u2019s bad optics to fire chief baseball officer Breslow, even though it\u2019s fairly obvious he\u2019s a huge part of the problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Asked Thursday about the possibility of replacing Breslow, Red Sox president and CEO Sam Kennedy told WEEI, \u201cIt\u2019s not even on the table.\u201d Swell. But it <i>should<\/i> be on the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><span>Get Starting Point<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span>A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div><label>Enter Email<\/label><\/p>\n<div><button>Sign Up<\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span>Theo Epstein was Red Sox boss from 2003-11 and won two World Series. His successors, Ben Cherington, Dave Dombrowski, and Chaim Bloom, all were gone in four or fewer seasons. Dombrowski was fired 10 months after winning 119 games and the World Series. Breslow is in his third season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>I believe Breslow is safe because the Sox are only two months removed from April\u2019s seismic shakeup and don\u2019t want to appear as unstable as they obviously are. Ownership hitched its wagon to Breslow when Cora and Co. were fired, and now they have nowhere to turn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThey cannot fire Craig,\u201d one of the \u201cCora Seven\u201d told me Thursday. \u201cBecause if they fire him, why did they fire us?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Fair question.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It\u2019s become painfully clear that the Sox are paralyzed by data and Breslow is the leader of the \u201cexpected outcomes\u201d band. (Did you know that Mickey Gasper would have hit a couple of homers if he hadn\u2019t been playing in the Trop the other night?) Breslow has assembled a front office and clubhouse staff of folks who think they can measure and quantify everything but have no feel for what it\u2019s like to be a major league player.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Breslow has offered little to earn the enormous trust he\u2019s getting from the top. His player assessments \u2014 particularly evaluations of Red Sox players \u2014 have been horrendous. Has any team in the last three years made two worse deals than Chris Sale for Vaughn Grissom and Kyle Harrison for Caleb Durbin? Oh, and can you imagine having zero to show for the services of Rafael Devers and Alex Bregman?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The hideous lineup the Sox roll out every night is on Craig Breslow. Imagine Gasper (no homers, a .338 slugging percentage) batting fifth, Durbin (.204) sixth, followed by the likes of Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Andruw Monasterio?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI can\u2019t believe they are content going with so many [Triple-A] players \u2014 utility infielders \u2014 at the bottom of the lineup,\u201c a rival evaluator told the Globe\u2019s Alex Speier Wednesday. Another said, \u201c . . . Role players who are being overexposed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Breslow is a brilliant and agreeable guy. He helped fix the Cubs\u2019 minor league pitching department and has made Boston\u2019s pitching better. He was atop the Sox\u2019 baseball ops masthead when they won 89 games and made the playoffs last season. All that said, it\u2019s hard to believe he played 12 years in the majors. He has little feel for what matters in a big league clubhouse, worships at the altar of analytics, and seems to think Driveline guys have all the answers. His is a baseball ops department that tells Jim Rice not to bother hitting prospects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Knowing all this, the Sox are going to trust Breslow to make deals for valuable assets such as Aroldis Chapman and Sonny Gray?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Really? Does this make sense to anybody?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Quiz: 1. The NHL once had the Atlanta Thrashers, Colorado Rockies, Hartford Whalers, Minnesota North Stars, and Quebec Nordiques.

It would be impossible to quantify how much pain those two delivered to Boston sports fans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 This might be the greatest NBA Finals of all time. New York is seeking its first men\u2019s major team sports championship since the Giants beat the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis in 2012. The Knicks haven\u2019t won an NBA crown since 1973. The winner of this year\u2019s Finals will be the league\u2019s eighth champion in the last eight years. The 2016-17 and 2017-18 Warriors are the NBA\u2019s last repeat winners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 The Celtics need more players like Knicks OG Anunoby and Josh Hart. In Game 1 of the Finals, Hart registered 15 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, and a block in 27 minutes. He was plus-22 for the night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bostonrelocationinsider.com\/?p=2527\">In trying to control Washington\u2019s most independent agency, Trump risks economic damage<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Rick Brunson, father of Knicks star Jalen Brunson, played high school ball in Salem, went on to play for Temple, then had a nine-year career with eight teams as an NBA bench player. He\u2019s an assistant coach with the Knicks in 2026, and was on New York\u2019s roster in 1999, when they lost to the Spurs in the Finals. Brunson played only 10 seconds in that series.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Amplifying the obvious notion that big-time college football is a complete farce, we have a Lubbock County (Texas) court ruling that Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby can return to the gridiron even after telling the NCAA he placed thousands of bets during his athletic career, including at least 40 on Indiana football while he was a redshirt freshman for the Hoosiers. The NCAA \u2014 routinely pounded by court rulings \u2014 is appealing. Wonder what the late Pete Rose would think.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Yankees righthander Cam Schlittler is in the conversation for AL Cy Young. A Walpole\/Northeastern University guy, Schlittler last weekend told the New York Post, \u201cThe Red Sox don\u2019t draft out of New England, that\u2019s just not their thing . . . that\u2019s just not what they do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This is not totally fair, of course. Schlittler was passed over by every team until the seventh round in 2022. Ditto for Yankees slugger Ben Rice (Cohasset, Dartmouth College) who wasn\u2019t picked until the 12th round in 2021. And Bloom was in charge of the Sox\u2019 draft in those seasons, not Breslow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 How many of you knew that Schlittler was named after Bruins legend Cam Neely?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 WooSox fans who saw Yankees prospect Spencer Jones the last couple of years were not surprised when the 6-foot-7-inch rookie launched his first big league homer, a 443-foot blast in Cleveland Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Not a fan of Willson Contreras\u2019s temper tantrum in New York last Friday night. The combustible Red Sox first baseman was slapped with an error he didn\u2019t deserve when Monasterio bumped into him as he was attempting to catch a foul pop off the bat of Ben Rice, who eventually struck out. No harm, no foul. But Contreras angrily tossed a water cooler and upended a bunch of other stuff after he got back to the dugout. Bush move, showing up your teammate in that situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Garrett Crochet has yet to pitch a game in the Chad Tracy era.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Chase Nixon, son of Trot and Kathryn Nixon, is a 24-year-old outfielder with the High Point Rockers of the Atlantic League. Young Nixon was born in Boston on Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, and his father missed the birth because the Red Sox had flown from New York to Tampa after being rained out at Yankee Stadium Monday night. Kathryn Nixon went into labor back in Boston after the Sox settled into their Florida hotel. Nixon arranged to fly back to the Hub early Tuesday, but his commercial aircraft was forced to land in Norfolk, Va., when all flights were grounded after the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Nixon wound up driving 19 hours to see his wife and newborn son in Boston the next day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Orioles manager Craig Albernaz is Somerset\u2019s latest gift to the big leagues. Albernaz was born in Fall River and played high school ball in Somerset, same as the late Jerry Remy and former Twins world champion shortstop Greg Gagne.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Bay Area athlete Catherine Breed is planning to swim the entire length of the California coastline starting in July. She expects the 900-mile swim will take her between 80 and 126 days. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 The Cape League starts this weekend, which makes it a good time to pick up \u201cCape Cod Baseball League: From College Stars to Big League Futures,\u201d edited by Boston baseball author Bill Nowlin and Mike Richard, historian of the Cape Cod Baseball League.
