I know, I know, I’ve been slacking with the coverage of the Boston Red Sox these past few days. Between having internet issues, not having enough time and other things, I’ve been a little behind. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been following what’s going on, it just means I haven’t been doing my level best to keep everyone informed.
I’ll call it a case of spring training-itis.
But going forward from here, unless I’m not home for the day, I will do my best to stay on top of the Red Sox news.
Today, the Red Sox will host the Florida Marlins at City of Palms Park in a game that begins at 1:05 p.m. The game will be televised in the Red Sox television market on NESN and will also be available to others on the MLB Network.
Today’s game will mark the spring debut of Adrian Gonzalez who underwent shoulder surgery on his non-throwing shoulder. It’s expected that he’ll play only three-four innings.

1. Emilio Bonifacio | 2B | 1. Jacoby Ellsbury | CF |
2. Dewayne Wise | CF | 2. Dustin Pedroia | 2B |
