The Boston Red Sox franchise slugger offered a four-word response as Marcelo Mayer takes over his old position.

Reports of the San Diego Padres targeting Boston's Jarren Duran have gained steam, and with Roman Anthony arriving to the Major Leagues, one insider believes that deal could get done.

BOSTON — Rookie Roman Anthony is batting fifth in Boston’s lineup for a third straight game Wednesday. It’s the same lineup manager Alex Cora used Tuesday. The Red Sox and Rays will play the rubber game of their three-game series at 7:10 p.m. here at Fenway Park.
