The Red Sox plan to use a platoon in right field with Martinez starting against left-handers and Jackie Bradley against righties, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Now that the Red Sox have added an elite bat in Trevor Story, they have offensively capable bats in case Bradley doesn't recover from his .163/.236/.261 slash line from 2021. In addition to using Martinez in right, the Red Sox plan to give Christian Arroyo (hand) outfield reps. Both Martinez and Arroyo, who can play anywhere in the infield, will be in the lineup against lefties.
