"Alex Cora stated, 'You know what? I think it's f****** bull**** to be honest with you. There's conversations about the Red Sox, there's conversations about the industry. I was an ex-player, and it's a lot different compared to what's in the past.'"
"'But Alex Cora was talking to us about this today and he said the dynamic changes, though. It changes when you have a number of players under those kinds of deals. And that's what the concern can be for some of these teams.'"
