We now know which trio of pitchers the Boston Red Sox will roll out in Tampa Bay for the three-game series that kicks off the 2018 season.
In the least surprising news of the year, the Red Sox have announced Chris Sale as their Opening Day starter against the Rays on March 29. There had been some speculation as to why this news took so long to confirm but Sale is clearly the right choice to lead this staff.
Following the ace in the rotation will be David Price and Rick Porcello.
