Red Sox poised to name Chad Tracy as full-time manager soon

The Boston Red Sox are expected to promote Chad Tracy to full-time manager following a successful interim stint. Tracy, who took over in April after Alex Cora's firing, led the team to a 72-52 record, including a franchise-record 15-game winning streak. According to ESPN, both Tracy and chief baseball officer Craig Breslow are likely to remain with the organization, solidifying their future roles. Tracy previously managed Boston's Triple-A affiliate, the Worcester Red Sox, and exhibited strong leadership throughout the season. An official announcement may come after the current season concludes.
