About Chad Epperson

Born 1972. Chad Epperson is a baseball manager and baseball player.

Chad Aaron Epperson (born March 26, 1972) is an American professional baseball coach, and a former minor-league player, instructor and manager. On April 25, 2026, he was reassigned from his role as manager of the Portland Sea Dogs of the Double-A Eastern League to acting third-base coach of the Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball (MLB).

The Sea Dogs' manager since 2022, Epperson previously was the minor-league catching coordinator in the Boston organization for a dozen seasons, from 2010 through 2021. He was promoted to Boston's MLB staff after the club fired manager Alex Cora and made wholesale changes to its coaching group stemming from its 10–17 start to its 2026 season.

Career During his playing career, Epperson was a catcher who batted left-handed, threw right-handed, stood 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m) tall and weighed .

A 1990 graduate of Bishop Verot High School in Fort Myers, Florida, Epperson attended Seminole Community College and was selected by the New York Mets in the 40th round of the 1992 MLB draft. His professional playing career extended through 2000, and included stints in the Mets (1992–1995), Red Sox (1997–1999) and Baltimore Orioles (2000) farm systems, as well as service in independent league baseball.

Epperson reached the Double-A level for three Eastern League teams, the Binghamton Mets, Trenton Thunder and Bowie Baysox. In 2002, after a year as a manager in the independent Frontier League, Epperson rejoined the Red Sox organization as batting coach of the Sarasota Red Sox of the Class A Florida State League.

After two years in that role, Epperson became a manager in the Red Sox system with the Class A Augusta Greenjackets (2004), Greenville Bombers (2005), Wilmington Blue Rocks (2006), Lancaster JetHawks (2007–2008), and Salem Red Sox (2009). He was the California League Manager of the Year in successive seasons during his two years with Lancaster. His managerial record as of his promotion to the MLB Red Sox was 798–766 (.510) over 13 seasons.
