Why did David Price switch from No. 24 to No. 10?

FORT MYERS, Florida -- Forget those boring "He's in the best shape of his life" spring training stories. Thanks to David Price, we have a new type of spring training mystery: Figure out why the postseason hero is changing his uniform number from 24 to 10.

Price wouldn't reveal the reason for his switch Thursday.

"I'm going to let you guys figure it out," he said to media members with a smile, perhaps enjoying tweaking those who had criticized him before he helped carry the Boston Red Sox to the World Series title last fall.
