Alex Cora says ownership has assured him he\'ll return as manager of the Boston Red Sox next season.
Cora, who has a year remaining on his contract, added that he informed ownership he was not prepared for and did not want to be considered a candidate for a front-office role at this point.
The 47-year-old has amassed a 439-370 regular season record and led Boston to the 2018 World Series championship.
