Craig Breslow introduced in loads of new expertise this offseason, however he didn’t plug each gap on the Pink Sox roster. So for our query of the day at this time, we’re bending house and time to ask you this: When you may take one participant from Pink Sox historical past and put him on the 2026 roster, who would you decide?
Contemplating that we spent the offseason questioning in regards to the lineup’s lack of right-handed energy and the opening at third base, somebody like Kevin Youkilis instantly involves thoughts. (Adrian Beltre could be even higher, but it surely’s onerous for me to consider him as a participant from Pink Sox historical past.) On the opposite facet of the infield, having Dustin Pedroia to lock down second base whereas sliding Marcelo Mayer to 3rd will surely work.
However I’m going with this man:
The Boston Pink Sox ought to, as a matter of precept, at all times have one of many best sluggers within the sport anchoring the lineup. So let’s deliver again one of the best Pink Sox hitter of the final 50 years.
I’d make him the full-time DH, after all. And, as an added bonus, his presence would pressure Craig Breslow to lastly make a commerce to clear the outfield/DH logjam.
