Masataka Yoshida’s 2024 season was marred by injury, limiting him to DH roles while raising questions between him and the Red Sox's front office about his defense.
Manager Alex Cora recognized that Yoshida’s shoulder issue affected his ability to play outfield, clarifying that the decision was partly due to his health, not solely confidence in other players.
Despite the shoulder surgery, the Red Sox are optimistic about Yoshida's recovery, aiming for him to be ready for Opening Day, potentially starting as a DH.
Yoshida's limited role as a DH won't be a major challenge for the Red Sox, who currently lack an everyday DH but have several capable outfielders.
