Properly, this certain is fascinating, huh? The Red Sox are rolling out one thing that appears very very like an everyday season lineup immediately as they host the Tigers in Fort Myers. However there’s one thing notably notable in regards to the crew: Marcelo Mayer is enjoying second.
Mayer has not performed a single inning {of professional} baseball at second base, however Alex Cora says this isn’t only for funsies:

Mayer has been excellent this spring, slashing .357/.419/.536 with one homer in 14 video games. It appears extremely unlikely that he would make his huge league debut at a place he’s by no means performed earlier than and with out having performed a single recreation above AA. However Kristian Campbell himself has solely performed 85 skilled video games at second base, and he has far much less skilled baseball expertise than Mayer general.
Possible fourth starter Richard Fitts takes the mound at 1:05. Catch the sport on NESN.
