Will World Champion Red Sox Visit White House? Alex Cora Says ‘We’ll Talk About It’

BOSTON (CBS) – Will the World Series champion Boston Red Sox visit President Donald Trump at the White House? Manager Alex Cora said that decision has not yet been made. Cora was asked if the team would make the trip if invited during his postgame press conference.

“We’ll talk about it later on,” Cora said.

Earlier this fall, Cora was critical of Trump’s comments about Puerto Rico, the native country of the Red Sox manager.

White House visits have been the source of controversy during the Trump presidency. Trump called off the Eagles’ Super Bowl visit when it became evident a small number of players would be attending.

The Golden State Warriors did not visit the White House when they won the NBA title. After winning the Stanley Cup, last year, the Pittsburgh Penguins did visit with President Trump.

PDJT ought to save them the trouble and announce he is a Yankee’s fan and doesn’t want the Red Sock within 500 feet of the White House

Turn the tables on these petty little creeps

The Red Sox ownership could announce that the players will receive their World Series rings in a ceremony at the White House. If you don’t show up, you don’t get a ring.

It ought to be. Then its biggest source of income would be leasing military bases to the United States.

There would also be no automatic right to resettle in Florida, New York, etc.

We could also invite Granada to apply for Commonwealth status and thus fill the void. THEIR citizens seem to actually like America and Americans.

Has an invitation to visit the White House even been extended? And shouldn't they wait until one is before saying that they may not go?

I'm guessing many would go. I just get that vibe from them. Unlike the garbage that owns the team who recently excluded Curt Schilling from throwing out the first pitch with his old teammates. JD Martinez is a very outspoken 2nd Amendment supporter.

Trump should invite Dave Roberts and ask him why he took out Rich Hill.
