I liked Ron Washington as well, I think he'd be a good coach with Boston.

The Red Sox are considering Mets bench coach Hensley Meulens as a potential candidate to replace Alex Cora as manager.
Meulens served as the hitting coach for the Giants as they won three World Series titles in the past decade. He was hired by the Mets to join Carlos Beltran's staff as bench coach last month. Meulens is considered a candidate to replace Beltran with the Mets as well. Both Cora and Beltran lost their jobs due to the recent sign-stealing scandal. Meuelens played in the majors, Japan and Korea in the 1990s and speaks five languages -- English, Spanish, Dutch, Papiamento and Japanese.

Varitek is an interesting option. He's been a 'special assistant' for too long... but, I think they've been grooming him for a front office role. He'd be an interesting option for bench coach.

And, would Pedro even want a coaching job?

but yeah, it will probably be Varitek. Former catchers always seem to get gigs as managers plus Varitek is beloved in Boston. I wouldn't mind Craig Breslow.

yeah, i hear maybe a bench coach too (the talking heads) but for a straight PR "lets put cora behind us and get a new story going" this would be ideal.

and pedro has always said he wants to coach some day.

its because the "interim" tag is on ron, because hes under investigation. once hes cleared, hes the manager. people see "interim" and get guessy.
