Red Sox Reveal Top Of Their Lineup For 2025
2 mins agoBoston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said the top five hitters in the lineup this year are likely to be outfielder Jarren Duran, third baseman/designated hitter Rafael Devers (shoulders), third baseman Alex Bregman, first baseman Triston Casas and shortstop Trevor Story. Given the fact that Devers has yet to appear in a Grapefruit League game this spring as he works on his swing after battling issues in both of his shoulders last year, it's looking more and more likely that Devers will be the DH and Bregman will open the year at the hot corner. In that scenario, playing time at second base is up for grabs among prospect Kristian Campbell, Vaughn Grissom and David Hamilton. Bregman will add a big right-handed bat in the heart of Boston's order and help break up lefties at the top of the order. The odd-man out to start the year appears to be DH Masataka Yoshida (shoulder).
