Cora added to the opinion that all is well with the infielders after watching Devers receive constructive feedback from Bregman during glove work on the practice field earlier Monday."I think everybody here believes in their abilities," Bregman said."I think all of us believe that if we all put together a good effort this season, we have a really good chance of being a winning baseball team.Campbell, 22, said Monday he is working out exclusively at second base despite also previously playing in the outfield. He batted .330 with 20 home runs, 24 stolen bases and 32 doubles in 115 games across three levels of the Red Sox farm system in 2024. " saw last year how special of a player he is," Bregman said of Campbell, who was primarily a second baseman as a freshman in his only season at Georgia Tech.
