Pitcher David Price said wearing a Red Sox uniform now ‘feels normal’

FORT MYERS — At JetBlue Park, David Price already is working hard, preparing himself for his second season with the Red Sox, for whom he’s under contract to play for as many as six more years.

And during one of his first interviews from spring training yesterday, Price admitted that Year No. 2 already feels different.

“Now it feels normal, wearing this uniform, being around all these guys,” Price said. “It’s second nature to me now.”

It wasn’t an easy first year.

Price struggled at times on the mound, going 17-9 with a 3.99 ERA — decent enough stats, yet not in line with his standout 2015 campaign.
