The Boston Red Sox kicked off their Spring Training schedule against Northeastern University, a tradition for years. Alex Cora submitted his first lineup card of the 2023 season with some surprises in it. Triston Casas also sheds light on some drama in the clubhouse last year that had to do with his pre-game routines of napping and sunbathing. Red Sox hitting coach spoke about how impressed he's been with Masataka Yoshida thus far and how he has shown much more power than anticipated. Alex Cora also spoke about how the team plays to use prospect Enmanuel Valdez during Spring Training and shared how impressed he's been by his offensive production and plate discipline.
Jake Ignaszewski and NESN's Lauren Willand react to the Red Sox first game of Spring Training and discuss a few surprises within the lineup. Jake and Lauren then share their thoughts on the Casas situation and explain why this is something players in the Red Sox clubhouse will have to get used to with more young players coming up in the future. Then they discuss the report that Yoshida's power has impressed Red Sox coaches and they look at his current projections going into the season. Lastly, they talk about Enmanuel Valdez and finish with a mental health minute.
