Steve Pearce Making Spring Debut Wednesday
6 years agoBoston Red Sox first baseman Steve Pearce (illness) is making his spring training debut on Wednesday against the Pirates. The 2018 World Series MVP has been out with an illness the last week. Don't let his postseason heroics fool you into thinking he's suddenly relevant in mixed leagues. Pearce hit .284/.378/.512 but had only 11 home runs and 42 RBI in 215 at-bats during the regular season and will continue to platoon at first with Mitch Moreland in Beantown. He'll turn 36 in April and is strictly an AL-only option for his occasional streakiness.
