It’s a good thing that the Boston Red Sox brought plenty of outfielders with them to camp, because their numbers are dwindling.
First it was center fielder Jackie Bradley, who was a late scratch from Friday’s game against the Minnesota Twins due to stiffness in his right forearm. Bradley doesn’t seem overly concerned about it, insisting that his allergies bothered him more than any discomfort in his arm.
Bradley added that he could still “throw it out of the stadium,” which sounds like a good way to cause further damage if he actually tried that, but at least it expresses confidence that his arm will be fine.
