What you got to do is just make it rain, and you can go pick a few guys. Now pitching, on the other hand, is the toughest thing to put together. We got pitching. Pitching can always stop good offenses. The playoff is a playoff pitching (staff) we got right now. We line up a couple of thunders in the lineup to help (Rafael Devers) and the rest of them boys \u2014 one good bat would do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One certainly doesn\u2019t need to read between the lines to know who Ortiz was talking about.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Bregman is still linked to the Red Sox as the Detroit Tigers appear to be the only other known contender for his services. Manager Alex Cora on Saturday praised Bregman and highlighted again how he sees him as a Gold Glove second baseman.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>It still does seem to be a wait-and-see on which team Bregman decides to sign with.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>About the Author<\/h3>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/07\/cropped-Jason-Ounpraseuth-96x96.jpg\" alt=\"David Ortiz Urges Red Sox To Make This High-Impact Move\" \/><\/figure>\n<div>\n<h3>Jason Ounpraseuth JasonOun95<\/h3>\n<p>Editorial Content Writer II<\/p>\n<p>Editorial Content Writer II for NESN.com.
