Because the Puerto Rican Professional Baseball League was canceled, Alex Cora spent the offseason training with Alex Cintron in the Miami area instead of playing ball, according to the Boston Herald. "For the first time since 1996," said Cora, "I didn’t play the whole year around. It was a lot different, but I think it’s good." Cora added that this offseason he cleared up a matter related to a bench warrant served in 2000 for a 1999 drunken driving incident. "It’s something that happened a long time ago," he said. "A lot of stuff got misunderstood."
