Yesterdays’s win against the Seattle Mariners didn’t produce a save situation — Enmanuel Valdez and Garrett Whitlock made sure of that. But if the game had been closer, Alex Cora says Kenley Jansen would have been available. After missing Saturday’s loss due to back pain that has been flaring up all spring, Kenley felt good enough to warm up in the ninth in case he was needed. The status of his back is something we’re going to need to watch all season, as Jansen is both an important part of the bullpen and one of the Red Sox most likely trade pieces.
