With the pitchers and catchers for the Boston Red Sox officially reporting on Sunday at the Red Sox Player Development Complex in Ft. Myers, FL, there will be some new faces in camp. And with new faces means new numbers that help us match the face and the number together.
Courtesy of Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe, here’s the list of numbers for the new players:
Alfredo Aceves: 91
Matt Albers: 32
Carl Crawford: 13
Adrian Gonzalez: 28
Bobby Jenks: 52
John Lackey: 41
Andrew Miller: 30
Tony Pena Jr.: 46
Dan Wheeler: 36
Curt Young: 40
By the way, I’m so glad I didn’t buy that John Lackey uniform t-shirt that was in the clearance bin at Bob’s a few weeks ago.
The first full workout for the pitchers and catchers will be on Tuesday morning with the rest of the team due into camp on Thursday although from the looks of it, most of the team is already there.
Spring is in the air, can you feel it?
