"At the very least, much of it was filled with quips that you could've thought of and put onto a bingo card before hand- trust me, I've done so with Smithers on the mic before. It was filled with the standard, predictable talking points after a postseason exit. Cora said the journey was fun while realizing that Boston's ultimate goal wasn't reached."
"I was planning on making this post a review of Monday's end-of-the-season press conference featuring the Red Sox brass. I even told the OTM slack that I was going to do so once I was done with my real-life job (please don't call me a liar, guys). Yet while listening to the 40-minute session featuring Red Sox President Sam Kennedy, Manager Alex Cora, and Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow again, I quickly realized that there wasn't much to learn."
Sam Kennedy, Alex Cora, and Craig Breslow offered largely predictable and clichéd responses following the postseason exit. Alex Cora described the journey as fun but acknowledged the team did not reach its ultimate goal. Craig Breslow cited 2025 highs and lows while providing scant detail on roster decisions and future plans. Breslow noted that Carlos Narvaez will undergo a meniscus "clean up" surgery without expressing major concern. Kennedy praised the fans, repeatedly stated the team took a step in the right direction, and outlined real estate plans around Lansdowne Street. Comments about interest rates and finances appeared but lacked substantive roster clarity.
