Red Sox manager Alex Cora has always talked about how much Puerto Rico means to him, and when he brings the 2018 World Series trophy to his hometown of Caguas on Saturday, he'll be joined by a large entourage of players and coaches.
David Price headlines the group of Red Sox players, a group that also includes Brock Holt, Sandy Leon, Eduardo Rodriguez and Christian Vazquez. The team contingent also includes team chairman Tom Werner, president/CEO Sam Kennedy, first base coach Tom Goodwin, assistant hitting coach Andy Barkett, and advance scouting/statistical analysis coach Ramon Vazquez.
The mayor of Cora's hometown will greet the team plane in San Juan and escort the group to Caguas, about 16 miles south of the city.
