Alex Cora with a new LEADER in mind heading to 2025

El manager de Boston Red Sox, Alex Coramade a rather striking statement prior to the two-on-two game Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Center. The 2024 season is almost over for Boston and although mathematically they have a chance, they stopped depending on themselves a long time ago to be alive in October.

With the recent decline of Rafael Devers Due to a shoulder injury (which will not require surgery), Cora was asked about the closure of his players. There is no doubt that the outfield is the best of all and that he has broken several records of the organization, in addition to being considered among the revelations of the role in MLB.

The leadership role is not something that comes overnight. Nor is it about imposing. It is a natural role that few have and Alex Cora realized that one of his boys is ready to take on that role after his great campaign.

Red Sox beat the Blue Jays 4-1 on Monday to begin the adventure in Toronto. He highlighted the great victory of Tanner Houck to claim his ninth win of 2024. Ceddanne Rafaela He stood out with the bat, driving in two of the runs.

Red Sox eye new leader

“We need a leader… We need someone who can show the next wave of great Red Sox players how it’s done here.”Alex Cora said about Jarren DuranThe Mexican baseball player became the irremovable player in the manager’s lineup.

Durán far exceeded the statistics in his first three years. With 156 games He surpasses Rafaela by six as the team’s most active player in 2024. Without Devers active, he is the leader in walks with 54 and first in stolen bases with 34.

September ended with red numbers for Boston. There is no doubt that Jarren Duran was one of the most stable with his .231 in the last 15 games, three RBIs and 15 hits in 65 at-bats. At 28 years old and beyond what happens in the remainder of the 2024 role, his mission will be to maintain that batting line.

There is little room for maneuver. Boston must sweep its last two series and hope that its rivals do not win more games to overtake them. They look at the third Wild Card that the Kansas City Royals have. Everything indicates that the Baltimore Orioles and Detroit Tigers have tied the first two.

List of teams looking for the Wild Card in the American League

• Baltimore Orioles 86-70 (first ticket)
• Detroit Tigers 83-74 (second ticket)
• Kansas City Royals 82-74 (third ticket)
• Minnesota Twins 81-75 (one game)
• Seattle Mariners 81-76 (game and a half)
• Boston Red Sox 79-78 (three games)
