    The Red Sox still have plenty of question marks when it comes to their starting rotation. Chris Mazza, Jeffrey Springs and some others are in the mix to fill out the group once the season starts.

    If ERod isn’t ready, this season is ovah.

    From being outrighted to AAA in November to starting the fourth game of the season? @Brian_Johnson35 is close to making that comeback with the #RedSox:

    This rotation is going to be bad.

    That's an understatement.

    I was having a nice evening and all of a sudden I hear Brian Freaking Johnson might be the 4th starter. They are trying to get me to not buy the MLB package this year.

    Now all we need is for the Sox to bring Buchholz back and our baseball lives will be complete!

    The Red Sox announced Thursday that they’ve formally added catcher Jonathan Lucroy to their 60-man player pool. Lucroy joins the pool as a non-roster player and brings Boston’s total to 48 players (37 members of the 40-man roster and 11 non-roster invitees).
    Sox added relievers Mick Kickham and Caleb Simpson to bring the total player pool to 50. They are supposedly meeting today to figure out what to do with the remaining 10 spots. Looks like they aren't going to go the Padres route of bringing in all their top prospects.

    He's a better option than some of the guys they've put on the 50 man roster now. I wonder why no team has snatched him up?

    The Sox are looking to add starting pitching.

    I think Cashner would be really good in a relief role.

    Hard to figure out who is still a FA since the MLB FA Tracker includes McHugh as an available FA.

    Article on Yairo Munoz (signed to MiLB deal)

    He plays 2b, SS, 3b, CF, LF and RF. A better version of Lin?

    Sox beat reporters really pushing the Brian Johnson as 4th starter idea today...

    Munoz is the Swiss Army knife type, he can play a wide variety of positions and can hit. Kind of a Brock Holt type. Has he got the temperament to succeed? At 25, he may be an excellent utility man to have on the team and possibly more.
