A couple of weeks ago, people were still wondering if there would be a 162-game baseball season. Now, believe it or not, the Red Sox’ first meaningful game of the 2022 MLB season is less than two weeks away.

Also, this accelerated spring training gives fans much less of a chance to see some of the organization’s brightest young stars in the hectic lead-up to the season.
