World Baseball Classic will be played for the first time in 6 years this month and is beginning in one week. The Red Sox have 10-12 players participating in the tournament to represent the countries their family is from. MLB Network & WBC Reporter Jon Morosi joins Jake Ignaszewski and NESN's Lauren Willand to speak about how the WBC could hurt or help the Red Sox going into the season. Morosi touches on how the tournament could help Masataka Yoshida acclimate to the MLB pitching and get used to the sinker pitch. He also shares his thoughts on if Kike Hernandez's preparation for the shortstop position could be impacted by playing centerfield in WBC. Jake and Lauren then explain which players could capitalize the most during Red Sox Spring Training while the WBC is happening. They also look into why some players elected not to participate in the WBC. Follow us on Twitter! @LO_RedSox & @jakeiggy & @lalalalaurrrren Support us by supporting our sponsors!
