Danny Coulombe is throwing a live BP Monday. He is hoping to get into a game after that but will see how he comes out of the live BP

Later this week, the Red Sox will host the Women’s Pro Baseball League at JetBlue Park. A partnership that started years ago with a women’s baseball fantasy camp is now a small part of turning women’s baseball into a reality.  “It’s a big honor” www.nytimes.com/athletic/711...

Crochet won’t start today, instead he’ll start a minor league game in Mon. They’re trying to rework the sched for his rest days beyond Opening Day because of extra off days early on Cora says it’s likely Gray starts second game in Cincy, sorting out Bello and Suarez in next two

Red Sox vs Twins: Duran LF, Rafaela CF, Durbin 3B, Kiner-Falefa SS, Mayer 2B, Sogard 1B, Narváez C, Wong DH, Eaton RF, Crochet P

11 batted balls, with only 1 well hit off Bello tonight. 7 K, 0 BB over 5 nicely pitched innings. 12 whiffs on 37 swings are probably the highlight of the outing. Only a handful of curves:

Jarren Duran has been on a tear early in spring training and at the WBC with six homers in nine games. He’s back in Red Sox camp, asked what’s been the difference? “Honestly just not care… not make everything bigger than it needs to be” On his offseason www.nytimes.com/athletic/710...

Romy Gonzalez says his surgery was a best-case scenario. He went in knowing he’d get surgery but not sure if it would be a labrum tear. Instead it was just a cleanup procedure and he’s planning to be back as soon as he’s eligible to return from the 60 day IL in late May

Danny Coulombe is in camp and threw a bullpen before the camp. He said he's aiming to be ready by Opening Day and after 15 spring trainings, he has a good idea of what he needs to do to build up. He'd been working out back home in Dallas

A good sign for Oviedo: He fell behind the second batter Cedric Mullins 3-1, got a called strike on a slider then got him swinging to strike out on a curveball

Cora said Duran will be back in camp on Saturday. ICYMI, here's more on the work he's done to put together an impressive spring thus far

Jarren Duran has six homers, four off lefties, early this spring. On an offseason working to refine his game strategy and reduce his chase. “When he is in control of the at-bat and he’s dictating the aggressiveness, this is the type of player he can be” www.nytimes.com/athletic/710...

Jarren Duran had a monster WBC for Mexico after a hot start to ted Sox camp and has six homers in nine games. He could be the x-factor for Boston's offense this season. "This spurt we're seeing now is not only what I think he can be, but kind of who he is.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/710...

Kutter Crawford is throwing two innings of live BP today

Braiden Ward walked then stole second and third. It was close at third, but he's safe and is now 16 of 17 on stolen bases in 16 game played. A bit more on him and how he might impact the roster this season in here www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

Cora mentions Guerrero, Samaniego, Song and Keller as stand outs in camp. Also Seth Martinez as a long man option given Crawford and Sandoval are still building up and haven't entered games yet.

While some of the best starters in baseball have been competing for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, Garrett Crochet has toiled away in Fort Myers, far from the spotlight. On Crochet’s early decision not to pitch in the WBC and what he’s working on www.nytimes.com/athletic/710...

Campbell just homered for the first time this spring. More on his big swing changes here

As Team USA begins WBC play, Roman Anthony will be the youngest player on a star-studded roster. He still feels like he has a lot to prove to live up to his sky-high potential. On his diligent offseason rehab, plan to improve his defense and 2026 goals www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

It's that time of camp where half the Red Sox roster is at the WBC and several unfamiliar names are getting more at-bats and innings than usual. A look at a few standout performers so far, some of whom might contribute in Boston this season www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

Jeremy Peña has a fracture in the tip of his right ring finger, according to the Astros. He will be reevaluated in two weeks

This time last year, Roman Anthony was getting heckled in the Spring Breakout game for being “overrated”. On Tuesday he homered in a WBC exhibition game. He seems sufficiently hyped at this point.  On Year 2 of Anthony and how much better he can get www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

Mayer talking a bit about this now on the ESPN broadcast

From @theathletic.com: With only 99 days until the World Cup, things are getting tense in Foxboro. The local select board is still blocking FIFA's license for Gillette Stadium due to a $7.8 million gap in security funding. Seven matches are at stake.

Roman Anthony's two-run homer in the WBC exhibition game showed he belongs. But entering his first full season, he still feels he has a lot to prove. “I’m continuing to do the same work as if I’m not in the big leagues yet and still trying to make it.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

🎙️ Rates & Barrels ⚾ More team previews! @jcmccaffrey.bsky.social joined me to talk Red Sox, @codystavenhagen.bsky.social dropped by for the Tigers, and @aarongleeman.bsky.social explained the Twins' bizarre offseason.... Audio: pod.fo/e/398f97 YouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RatesBarrels

Roman Anthony said he’s fine - the collision with Rafaela knocked the wind out of him a bit, and he banged his left forearm off Rafaela in a way that was sort of surprising, but he felt fine and knew he’d be OK to stay in the game.

Anthony is up after a couple minutes on the ground. It appeared the trainer was looking at his left wrist after Anthony landed awkwardly while trying to avoid a more vicious collision. But both Anthony and Rafaela remain in the game.

Marcelo Mayer is batting sixth and playing second in his first game today. “Last year was obviously a struggle for me. That’s not the player that I think I am.” It's a pivotal year for Mayer, who added significant strength this winter to stay healthy www.nytimes.com/athletic/707...
