Now, an elite prospect pool headlined by Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony, Kyle Teel and Kristian Campbell sits on the verge of joining the big-league club in 2025 and, with impact moves in the offseason, could deliver Boston its first postseason berth since 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Jason Varitek, Boston\u2019s former catcher and current game planning coordinator, will help develop those players as they arrive for the Red Sox and preach a common mindset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to have the same mindset,\u201d Varitek told NESN.com Friday at the Pedro Martinez Foundation gala. \u201cWe have to continue to get better and continue to focus on being better. Pitch well. Play good defense. Every aspect of the game has to get better. With youth, you\u2019re going to have growing pains. With the growing pains, we have to continue to work hard and continue to focus on what makes us better today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Varitek follows manager Alex Cora, who signed a three-year extension in 2024, with continuity that should seriously benefit the Red Sox in 2025.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cPhenomenal,\u201d Varitek replied. \u201cEspecially for those young players. (Alex) being at the head of our whole organization and the team at the big leagues. To have that continuity back from early development in the beginning of last year. They had the same face, trust and ability to move forward together.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Boston Red Sox captain and catcher Jason Varitek discussed what he sees from the prospect pool on the coaching staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":7401,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7400","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Next Boston Stars?
