Pitching for Triple-A Sugarland on Sunday afternoon, McCullers went 2.0 innings in his first affiliated game action since 2022.

There are a number of Boston Red Sox stars who are entering their final season with the team for one reason or another.

In Boston’s 4-3 loss to the Rangers, Devers went 0-for-4 and struck out three times, including his last at-bat that saw him swing and miss a 92.3 mph cutter from former teammate Chris Martin in the ninth inning. Aside from a bases-loaded walk in the second inning on Saturday, Devers is 0-for-12 to start the year.

The Houston Astros have arrived into the season with a clear plan for what they are going to do at the third base position after it was a point of discussion.

The Red Sox opened their great expectations, 2025 season with three losses in four games in Texas and will be in last place in the American League East when they play in Baltimore Monday.

The New York Mets and Houston Astros will both have new-look lineups when they face each other in Thursday's Opening Day game. The Mets added superstar outfielder Juan Soto and right-handed pitcher Clay Holmes, the latter of whom will start Thursday's contest.

The Red Sox have released minor-league pitcher Grant Gambrell, leaving Josh Winckowski as the last player from the Andrew Benintendi trade.
