JUPITER, Fla. — The Red Sox’ situation at second base and its moving parts are beginning to settle following the news Wilyer Abreu will potentially be ready for Opening Day. If Abreu starts the season on the injured list, the Sox would likely carry an infielder who could also play the outfield other than Ceddanne Rafaela.

The Boston Red Sox could choose to include this veteran on the Opening Day roster if Wilyer Abreu isn't ready to go.

During a chat, Walker Buehler decided Anthony would buy coffee for everyone in the Red Sox organization. Early morning chaos ensued.

The Red Sox now believe their outfielder, who won a Gold Glove last year, could be ready to open the season with them.

JUPITER, Fla. — Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu has been cleared for game action after missing much of spring training because of a gastrointestinal issue. Abreu played in a minor league game Friday at Fenway South and is expected to be in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Braves.

The Boston Red Sox will open the season with three starting pitchers on the injured list after right-hander Lucas Giolito strained his left hamstring.

With Opening Day just a few weeks away, Rafael Devers has changed his tune about being the DH of the Boston Red Sox.

After saying earlier that he didn't want to be a designated hitter, Devers now seems OK with the idea: "I’ve matured a lot during this."

Devers said he spoke to chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and manager Alex Cora a few weeks ago about his feelings and ultimately decided to follow their lead.
