Great chatting with Barrett about this upcoming week's Sox-Braves series.

So much gets made in the offseason about who is signing where and which teams are making a splash, but a month into the new season how are this winter's biggest moves actually working out?

Imagine if the Bruins had lost on that? Good lord.

#RedSox today at Target Field:

Duran CF, Devers 3B, O’Neill LF, Abreu RF, Wong C, Smith DH, Cooper 1B, Hamilton 2B, Rafaela SS, Bernardino P

Miami’s really tapping out in May. I don’t understand why San Diego would do this though.

According to the WooSox game notes, Romy Gonzalez will begin his rehab assignment with the WooSox tonight.

No more delays. No more setbacks. Vaughn Grissom will finally debut for the Red Sox tonight.

The Red Sox make it official, activating Vaughn Grissom and optioning Bobby Dalbec.

Grissom will play his first game in a Red Sox uniform tonight in Minnesota.

MLB announces uniform adjustments in response to player blowback to this year’s new changes.

- Larger letters on the back and individual pant customization will return in 2025.

- Adjusted gray uniforms will be introduced as soon as the second half to address mismatched colors…

Nick Pivetta was hot and cold in his return to the mound, walking four in Thursday's rehab start with the WooSox.

That'll close the book on Nick Pivetta's rehab start.

3+ IP, 3 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 4 BB, 5 K (62 pitches/36 strikes)

He allowed five straight baserunners to start the game, then retired nine straight and finished with two walks to end his day.

WooSox manager Chad Tracy just told the media that the plan for Red Sox rehabber Nick Pivetta is for the right-hander to pitch 3 or 4 innings today for a total of 60-65 pitches.

The Red Sox are reportedly optioning their struggling first baseman to Triple-A. trib.al/1bBgQAm

The Red Sox are having Enmanuel Valdez – optioned to Triple-A – go back to playing a wide range of defensive positions like he did when he was in the Astros organization.

Zack Short starting at second in his Red Sox debut. Garrett Cooper back in the lineup at DH after getting hit by a pitch on Tuesday.

Duran CF, Devers 3B, O’Neill RF, Refsnyder LF, Wong C, Cooper DH, Dalbec 1B, Rafaela SS, Short 2B, Winckowski P

The Red Sox officially announce INF Zack Short has been added to the MLB roster and 2B Enmanuel Valdez has been optioned to Triple-A. Julian McWilliams was on it first.

FINAL: Red Sox 6, Giants 2

The Sox have won four straight. They are now 18-13 and only 1.5 games back of first in the AL East.

Connor Wong is having a hell of a night. With that RBI double he's now 3 for 4 with two doubles and the Red Sox lead 6-2 in the seventh.

Kutter Crawford continues to shove. He goes seven innings for the first time in his big league career while allowing only two runs on four hits.

His ERA for the season is now 1.56 through seven starts.
