From the Boston Red Sox 's perspective, it almost feels like this will put them in a spot where they don't even make the playoffs come October. Perhaps it fires the guys up and they start playing better under their interim head coach, but that usually isn't the case. While moving on from Alex Cora has raised many questions for the organization, whether fair or unfair, it's also brought some interesting answers from some of the top players in the organization.

The latest to make one of those interesting comments was Roman Anthony, who, despite the Red Sox being 11-17, believes his team still has an opportunity to win a World Series. โ€œWe can still win the World Series,โ€ Anthony said , per the Globe. โ€œI know people on the outside probably donโ€™t agree with that, and a lot of sโ€”โ€˜s going on right now.

But for us, and for myself โ€” at least I can speak for myself โ€” the standard for me remains the same. My commitment to this team, this city, these people, is still the exact same. I still feel the same way.
