The Boston Red Sox got their guy right around the time Spring Training kicked off and it sounds like there has been nothing but positives with him so far. After months of speculation and rumors, the Red Sox finally were able to sign former Houston Astros All-Star Alex Bregman in February.

After an offseason so productive that The Athletic gave the Red Sox a solid grade of “A,” Boston’s spring training got off to a rocky start with an instant controversy that placed the team’s premier player right at the heart of it.

The Boston Red Sox have still yet to make a decision about whether Rafael Devers and Alex Bregman will serve as the team's starting third baseman this year, but Devers' slow start to spring training amid shoulder issues could make it a moot point.
