Boston Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombroski keeps his own counsel. When a potential clue to his thought process appears to leak out, we will tend to pounce on it and attempt to decipher the meaning, especially as we await his response to the Yankees’ acquisition of superstar outfielder, Giancarlo Stanton.
Dombrowski provided a possible clue during his conference call with the media following the re-signing of first baseman Mitch Moreland.
“…we feel we have a [designated hitter slot], and that between [Hanley Ramirez] and if I could find someone else to DH and play outfield spots, that would give us plenty of at-bats and opportunities for somebody to contribute in a full-time fashion,” stated Dombrowski, via MLB.
