Red Sox: Eduardo Rodriguez has earned the Opening Day starting spot
Boston Red Sox southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez was lights-out all season long and he’s earned the highly coveted Opening Day starter spot for the 2020 season.
Being named the starter for the Red Sox on Opening Day is a sign of praise and confidence from a team’s manager. The last few seasons Boston has put Chris Sale on the mound and rightfully so. However, with how this past season panned out for Sale, I’m not sure he will get that call again. Another southpaw made a serious claim to the throne and I feel that Eduardo Rodriguez should be on the hill on Opening Day.
