Through the first 64 games of the season, Boston leads MLB with 53 errors.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7RBDCY2LV5FIHPIZ75J6S5BA3A\">The 17 one-run losses, mental errors and 588 strikeouts have fans wondering whether Cora\u2019s seat should be hot, or if he\u2019s the right man to lead the Red Sox.<\/p>\n<p id=\"66T657UYXBBDDDBSJIGSWRX4EM\">During an appearance on WEEI\u2019s \u201cThe Greg Hill Show,\u201d chief baseball officer Craig Breslow was asked if he has \u201cfull confidence\u201d in Cora\u2019s ability to get the Red Sox back on track.<\/p>\n<p id=\"XMGWX2LAU5BHZPYTZF43CTZRU4\">\u201cI do,\u201d Breslow said. \u201cAnd when a team is struggling like we are, and is falling short of the lofty expectations that we have set for ourselves, that fans had set for us, I think we all feel a sense of responsibility and accountability. But we\u2019ve got to figure this out, and that\u2019s where we\u2019re spending all of our time right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"BF5MJ5OBZNHWBJTTKBLAIMWRPQ\">The Red Sox had hefty expectations on them this year after they made upgrades to their roster in the offseason that included signing Alex Bregman and trading for Garrett Crochet. While both players have performed well, Bregman landed on the injured list and the team hasn\u2019t always shown up in games to support Crochet during his starts.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3GXYWB72K5FSVA3YGDYHJ5KVHU\">Boston has also dealt with injuries \u2014 including a season-ending one for Triston Casas \u2014 and have players who haven\u2019t lived up to expectations thus far.<\/p>\n<p id=\"SEWLJVA3GRCGXKESEKRDEJUWRY\">There\u2019s still time for the Red Sox to turn things around, and Breslow wants to make sure they\u2019re making decisions best suited for the team.<\/p>\n<p id=\"QJ5NRX36UVEVHAKBJYNKWRL5A4\">\u201cWe\u2019re always going to be anchored to what is best for the team, and we have a lot of confidence in Alex as the leader of this group,\u201d Breslow said. \u201dHe\u2019s won in Boston as a player. He\u2019s won in Boston as a manager. We have conversations daily about everything that we can do to get us back on track. That\u2019s where our focus is, and that\u2019s where it will remain.\u201d<\/p>\n<section data-gaid=\":R3eaq6:\">\n<ul data-testid=\"list\">\n<li>How\u2019s ex-Red Sox prospect traded to Yankees for Carlos Narv\u00e1ez doing?<\/li>\n<li>MLB Notebook: What will it look like if the Red Sox are sellers at trade deadline?<\/li>\n<li>Bruins passed on safer choices to chase Marco Sturm\u2019s higher ceiling<\/li>\n<li>2004 Red Sox champion not pointing fingers at Alex Cora amid tough start to season<\/li>\n<li>As Kyle Teel gets call to majors, he says Red Sox \u2018helped me become the player I am\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
