Boston Red Sox news: Manny Ramirez seeks coaching role as team targets offensive upgrades

Former MLB star Manny Ramirez is seeking to return to Major League Baseball as a hitting coach. Ramirez, who recorded 555 career home runs and won two World Series titles with the Boston Red Sox, aims to use his experience to mentor younger players. His last professional role was as a player-coach for the Sydney Blue Sox in 2020-21.

Separately, the Boston Red Sox are prioritizing offensive improvements during the upcoming offseason. Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow noted that the team's offense lacked consistent power and home run production during the previous season. The organization is looking to bolster its lineup to better suit Fenway Park, with players like Seiya Suzuki being mentioned as potential targets to provide right-handed power.
