Garrett Whitlock underwent an internal brace procedure last May 30, which ended the right-hander’s season and seemingly ensured that he would miss some time at the start of the 2025 campaign.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora revealed that Abreu’s status for the regular season opener at the Texas Rangers on March 27 is still uncertain. Cora shared his comments about the outfielder with NESN’s Alex Speier and other members of the media:

The Red Sox's injury list includes catcher Connor Wong, outfielder Jarren Duran, infielder Romy Gonzalez, starting pitchers Brayan Bello and Lucas Giolito, and relievers Bryan Mata, Adam Ottavino and Garrett Whitlock, according to Sean McAdam of MassLive.

Since the Boston Red Sox signed Alex Bregman, the hot corner has been a hot topic in Fort Myers, Florida. It seems like everyone has an opinion on whether or not it should be Bregman or Rafael Devers at third base for the Red Sox this season.

The Boston Red Sox should make it back to the playoffs in 2025 and the addition of former Houston Astros All-Star Alex Bregman certainly should help with this.

The Boston Red Sox had a visionary plan—a strategic approach to their pitching rotation designed to give them a competitive advantage in 2025. The post Alex Cora Gives Up on Unique Pitching Plans After Disastrous Injury Crisis Threatens Red Sox’s Aspirations appeared first on EssentiallySports.
