The latest Will Middlebrooks MLB and fantasy baseball news
Fri, 25 May 2012 16:33:38 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine said 3B Will Middlebrooks will be in the starting lineup Saturday, May 26, after getting the day off Friday, May 25.
Fri, 25 May 2012 13:08:55 -0700 Boston Red Sox 3B Will Middlebrooks is not in the starting lineup Friday, May 25. 3B Kevin Youkilis is starting at third base Friday.
Tue, 22 May 2012 17:34:32 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine and general manager Ben Cherington agree that they want to limit OF Adrian Gonzalez's exposure to the outfield despite the fact that he played some outfield during winter ball and made some good catches out there in interleague play last weekend. "Even in a small outfield, we'll have to appraise the situation a little more as we see it," Valentine said. "I would say that probably less is better than more." 3B Will Middlebrooks won't be asked to move to the outfield.
Tue, 22 May 2012 13:09:29 -0700 The Boston Red Sox activated 3B Kevin Youkilis (back) from the 15-day disabled list Tuesday, May 22, and he's in the starting lineup. Youkilis is batting fifth and starting at first base, with 3B Will Middlebrooks starting at third and 1B Adrian Gonzalez in right field.
Mon, 21 May 2012 15:27:27 -0700 Boston Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington and manager Bobby Valentine are looking for ways to allow 3B Will Middlebrooks to stay in the lineup when 3B Kevin Youkilis (back) returns from the disabled list. The team may stick 1B Adrian Gonzalez in right field to allow Middlebrooks to play first base with Youkilis at third.
Mon, 14 May 2012 15:12:56 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine has refused to indicate how the playing time at third base will shake out when 3B Kevin Youkilis (back) returns from the disabled list. 3B Will Middlebrooks has been playing well at the hot corner in Youkilis' absence. However, Valentine indicated that it wouldn't be wise to have Middlebrooks sitting on the bench. "Sitting on the bench is not the place for very many players, especially good young talented players. What would be the purpose of having someone sit the bench unless there was a useful purpose not being in the starting role but also being able to contribute to the team's wins?" said Valentine. "Now is there a place for (Middlebrooks) to do that? I'm not sure."
Sun, 13 May 2012 22:04:19 -0700 Boston Red Sox 3B Will Middlebrooks had two hits, including a solo home run, in three at-bats Sunday, May 13, against the Cleveland Indians. He has hit safely in eight of his first 10 games in the majors. He has four homers since his major league debut May 2.
Thu, 10 May 2012 14:27:55 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine said 3B Will Middlebrooks is not an option to play in the outfield at this time.
Wed, 09 May 2012 14:20:42 -0700 Boston Red Sox 3B Will Middlebrooks (hamstring) is back in the lineup Wednesday, May 9.
Wed, 09 May 2012 08:50:45 -0700 Boston Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington indicated that 3B Kevin Youkilis (back) won't lose his job to 3B Will Middlebrooks because he's on the disabled list. "It's great that Will has come and done a good job," Cherington said, "but Youk's on the DL and he doesn't lose his job because he got hurt." However, there is still a good chance the BoSox look to trade Youkilis at some point this year to free up the hot corner for Middlebrooks.
