7 years agoBoston Red Sox catcher Blake Swihart continues to be the focus of attention and efforts to get more playing time. Manager Alex Cora said that Swihart will focus on catching, outfield and designated hitter for the near future. There is no time yet for Swihart to get repetitions in the infield. "Versatile enough that you never know in an extra inning game, you pinch-run and somebody gets hurt, and then that can help him (versatility) wise," Cora said. The Red Sox have an abundance of talent on the roster, so there are a few players competing for playing time. Swihart will have to excel to separate himself from the rest and ultimately find his way into our fantasy lineups.--Ellis Canady - RotoBaller
