Umpire Bruce Froemming with Jason Varitek and Alex Rodríguez in 2004.
RIP Umpire Bruce Froemming, 86. Trailed only Joe West and Bill Klem for games as an umpire in #MLB history.
Was behind the plate at Fenway in 2004 when #RedSox Jason Varitek famously shoved his catcher’s mitt in #Yankees Alex Rodriguez’ face.
#RedSox Garrett Crochet started today against old friend Steven Matz, now with #Rays. Both allowed a hit and a walk over 2.0 shutout innings. BOS wins 7-5.
Trevor Story 2-for-3 with 2 doubles, 2 RBI. Caleb Durbin doubles, plates 2. Aroldis Chapman strikes out 3 of 4 batters faced.
Former #RedSox Walker Buehler signs on with #Padres.
BOS released Buehler, 31, after he went 7-7 with a 5.45 ERA and 1.558 WHIP in 22 starts last year. He made 3 appearances with #Phillies to wrap up the season, allowing 1 earned run over 13.2 IP.
Everything moving quick for #RedSox Roman Anthony, who soon heads to WBC, too. Is it overwhelming? "No, I don't really look at it like that. I wouldn't want it any other way. It's all good things."
Says, "I wouldn't say it's all happened fast or been overwhelming, it's all just been a blessing"
#RedSox Roman Anthony
#RedSox Roman Anthony earlier today at spring training: "We know what the end goal is, and we know how we're going to try and piece it together to make everything work. I think we have a very complete lineup." Says, "As far as the offensive side goes, I think we're going to be just fine."
Love that optimism. Certainly if the youngsters stay on the field and produce the future is bright. Is that this year? Time will tell.
Fangraphs has BOS at 86-76, tied with TOR this year, and 3 wins shy of the 2025 tally. Not sure I buy that, though. I think 89 is achievable again. NYY, running back the same team, should be able to crack 90+ wins, though, imo.
I fMayer can stay healthy, stay on the field, I do believe the power is there for what you say.
Hope is not a strategy has been a motto of mine for decades, not just about baseball.
After 2025, it seemed clear #RedSox needed to add slug to their offense. And yet heading into ’26, they’re the only #MLB club without a player projected to top 20 home runs. rsnstats.link/E8e
Former #RedSox Nathaniel Lowe heads to #Reds on a minor league deal reports #MLB reporter Mark Feinsand via Twitter.
#RedSox Manager Alex Cora at spring training today.
#RedSox Manager Alex Cora earlier today on Trevor Story: "Excited about him…He's night & day compared to last year. Last year he was trying to find himself, today there was a lot of confidence in that batting practice."
Says Story opted into 2026 team "five minutes after the last out in New York."
#RedSox Sonny Gray
Newcomer Sonny Gray on #RedSox rotation: "On paper, it's as good as I've been a part of."
Of Garrett Crochet says, "He's a competitor, he's a big dude, he's a great human being…He checks every box as far as this is a guy who is going to lead the staff."
Breslow non-committal on Marcelo Mayer interest in focusing on one defensive position: "We'll work backwards from what is best for the team and what is best for each individual, and you hope that those things overlap." Says Marcelo is open to moving around, "He's looking for a way to contribute."
No specifics, as always, but Breslow says expects defense will be better in 2026: "We think we have both versatility and quality defenders and options at all positions. We improved our defense -- not enough, but we improved it -- from '24 to '25, and we have to take another step from '25 to '26."
Breslow on whether #RedSox roster is basically set at this point: "We're confident in the group. We like the way that the pieces fit together, but if there's an opportunity to continue to improve, we're not going to ignore that."
Craig Breslow on how he addressed adding thump to #RedSox lineup this off-season: "We pursued opportunities to bring in slug and when those didn't play out we looked at other opportunities to improve the team." Says full, healthy seasons for Wilyer Abreu and Roman Anthony will boost offense.
#RedSox Baseball Boss Craig Breslow
Baseball Boss Craig Breslow earlier today on why fans should be excited about 2026 #RedSox: "I think there's this really exciting, young, athletic core that's going to be part of a championship contender for a long time."
Agreed. Very poised. Solid.
#RedSox Garrett Crochet
Garrett Crochet, named 2026 #RedSox Opening Day starter, earlier today: "One good year doesn't make you a great player. I think you've got to kind of earn your stripes every year."
Says he enjoyed "as smooth as an off-season as I've had," taking 6 weeks off with the birth of his daughter.
#RedSox Manager Alex Cora earlier today on newcomer Isiah Kiner-Falefa: "Solid defensively, good baserunner. Efficient. When he takes off, he's safe."
On Kristian Campbell's offense: "He's in a good spot now…it's a different setup." Says, "He's made some adjustments…he looks great physically."
Plenty of confusion right now about this year's #MLB game steaming options, but the fact is, despite baseball's new deal with ESPN, you don't need to have the ESPN App or purchase an ESPN Unlimited subscription in order to be an MLB.TV subscriber.
Where will newcomer Caleb Durbin play? #RedSox Baseball Boss Craig Breslow says he and Manager Alex Cora spoke with Durbin this morning. "We're just excited to get a really good player into the organization and we'll figure out where he fits best [defensively]."
#RedSox acquire infielders Caleb Durbin & Andruw Monasterio, infielder/catcher Anthony Seigler, and a draft selection in Competitive Balance Round B of 2026 #MLB Draft from #Brewers, in exchange for left-handed pitchers Kyle Harrison & Shane Drohan and infielder David Hamilton.
