The Boston Red Sox face challenges in determining their infield alignment following the acquisition of Alex Bregman, who excels at third base. Rafael Devers firmly insists on playing his established position, creating tension. Chief baseball officer Craig Breslow downplayed these tensions, expressing confidence in manager Alex Cora's communication skills to manage these dynamics. Breslow emphasized the need for performance-based decisions rather than automatic placements, indicating that the team's focus will center on creating the best lineup possible for both offense and defense in the upcoming spring season.
I think having really good players that are talking about positions is not a terrible place to be in...my obligation is to put the best team on the field.
Part of the reason we as an organization feel that Alex is the perfect manager for the Red Sox is his ability to command a clubhouse, his ability to communicate.
