Will Junior Stay With the Big Boys?
One week left of Spring Training 2013. The biggest story at the Fort was & is David Ortiz' inability to get back on the field due to his ankle injury from last year. Both Big Papi & Stephen Drew, Drew back now from his concussion, will start the year on the DL. Jose Iglesias will be the Sox starting shortstop in New York on April Fool's Day. The only major question left is will Bradley Jr. take the roster spot vacated by Ortiz. Bradley has opened many eyes this spring with his play in the field & with his offense. Cherington & Farrell want to be sure he get use if he stays with the big club. No reason why he wouldn't. With the struggling bats of Overbay, Lavarnway, Sweeney & other guys vying for the 25th spot I've changed my mind on Bradley. I think he could add a spark by playing against right-handers & going in as a late-inning replacement in the field. I'm willing to give him a try over Sweeney or Carp.
