KEY GAME INFORMATION
BOSTON: 2016: 93-69, first place
Manager: John Farrell (fifth season)
Who's new? LHP Chris Sale, RHP Tyler Thornburg, 1B Mitch Moreland, OF Steve Selsky
Who's gone? DH David Ortiz, 3B Travis Shaw, 3B Yoan Moncada, 2B Aaron Hill, C Ryan Hanigan, RHP Clay Buchholz, RHP Junichi Tazawa, RHP Koji Uehara, RHP Brad Ziegler
Projected lineup: 2B Dustin Pedroia (.318, 15 HR, 74 RBI), LF Andrew Benintendi (.295, 2, 14 in 34 games), SS Xander Bogaerts (.294, 21, 89, 13 SB), RH Mookie Betts (.318, 31, 113), DH Hanley Ramirez (.286, 30, 111) CF Jackie Bradley Jr. (.267, 26, 87), 3B Pablo Sandoval (.000, 0, 0 in three games), 1B Mitch Moreland (.233, 22, 60 with Rangers), C Sandy Leon (.310, 7, 35) or Christian Vazquez (.224, 1, 12)
Rotation: LH Chris Sale (17-10, 3.34 ERA), RH Rick Porcello (22-4, 3.15), RH Steven Wright (13-6, 3.33), LH Drew Pomeranz (3-5, 4.59), LH Eduardo Rodriguez (3-7, 4.71)
Key relievers: RH Craig Kimbrel (2-6, 3.40, 31/33 SV), RH Tyler Thornburg (8-5, 2.15 with Brewers), RH Joe Kelly (4-0, 5.18), LH Robbie Ross (3-2, 3.25), RH Matt Barnes (4-3, 4.05), LH Fernando Abad (1-6, 3.66 with Twins and Red Sox), RH Heath Hembree (4-1, 2.65)
Hot spots: Third base. Is this the year Sandoval is known more for his ability to play baseball than his physique? Sandoval, who missed all but three games last year because of a shoulder injury, showed up to spring training looking slimmer than years past. His production at the plate and agility on the field followed suit in the Grapefruit League. The Red Sox have shown they aren't afraid to take playing time away from the Panda if he doesn't deserve it. Josh Rutledge, a competent fielder and perhaps a better hitter against left-handers, is around just in case.
Outlook: Boston scored more runs than any team in baseball last year, and this year's club has the pitching to avoid another early playoff exit. Newcomer Sale is the best left-hander in the AL, an ace in his prime. Porcello is the reigning Cy Young Award winner. David Price, when he returns from an elbow injury, gives the Red Sox arguably the best 1-2-3 punch in the league. Ortiz retired, but he'll leave a bigger hole in the hearts of fans than in the lineup. Benintendi is a candidate for the AL Rookie of the Year award, while Betts played like an MVP at age 23. A bounceback season from Sandoval would give opposing pitchers no chance to breathe. Triple-A depth shouldn't be enough of an issue to prevent the Sox from challenging the Indians for the pennant.
SEATTLE: 2016: 86-76, second place
Manager: Scott Servais (second season)
Who's new? LF Jarrod Dyson, SS Jean Segura, IF Danny Valencia, RF Mitch Haniger, C Carlos Ruiz, C Tuffy Gosewich, RHP Yovani Gallardo, LHP Drew Smyly, LHP Marc Rzepczynski, RHP Casey Fien, RHP Chris Heston
Who's gone? OF Seth Smith, SS Ketel Marte, C Chris Iannetta, OF Nori Aoki, RHP Taijuan Walker, RHP Nathan Karns, LHP Vidal Nuno, LHP David Rollins, RHP Tom Wilhelmsen
Projected lineup: LF Jarrod Dyson (.278, 1 HR, 25 RBI, 30 SB with Royals), SS Jean Segura (.319, 20, 64, 33 with Diamondbacks), 2B Robinson Cano (.298, 39, 103), DH Nelson Cruz (.287, 43, 105), 3B Kyle Seager (.278, 30, 99), C Mike Zunino (.207, 12, 31), 1B Danny Valencia (.287, 17, 51 with A's), RF Mitch Haniger (.229, 5, 17 in 34 games with Diamondbacks), CF Leonys Martin (.247, 15, 47, 24 SB)
Rotation: RH Felix Hernandez (11-8, 3.82), RH Hisashi Iwakuma (16-12, 4.12), LH James Paxton (6-7, 3.79), RH Yovani Gallardo (6-8, 5.42 with Orioles), LH Drew Smyly (7-12, 4.88 with Rays)
Key relievers: RH Steve Cishek (4-6, 2.81, 25/32 SV), RH Edwin Diaz (0-4, 2.79, 18/21), RH Nick Vincent (4-4, 3.73), RH Evan Scribner (0-0, 0.00 in 12 games), LH Marc Rzepczynski (1-0, 2.64 with A's and Nationals), RH Casey Fien (1-1, 5.49 with Twins and Dodgers)
Hot spots: First base and right field. Veteran Valencia has the first baseman's job for now, but Dan Vogelbach is the heir apparent who will begin the season at Triple-A. Vogelbach, 24, slimmed down this offseason ' a necessity when you're 6 feet tall, weigh 250 pounds and expect to play your first full major league season ' and might have more weight to lose. Valencia, 32, has never been a full-time first baseman in seven seasons. Haniger is known more for his glove than his bat, but he struggled (.713 OPS) in limited time at a hitter-friendly park in Arizona last year. Safeco Field won't be as kind. Cruz will play right field if Haniger doesn't.
Outlook: General Manager Jerry Dipoto has paired a staff of fly-ball pitchers with three rangy outfielders, an exercise in team-building he once tried with the Angels. Dipoto caused a stir by executing 40 roster transactions during the offseason, but is it possible he didn't do enough? Haniger has never been atop a major league depth chart. Pitchers Gallardo and Smyly are coming off shaky seasons in Baltimore and Tampa Bay, respectively. On paper, the Mariners look like a top-heavy team without much help in the minors if the bottom falls out. That was the case for Dipoto with the Angels too, and sometimes it worked out OK. More often it didn't.
PREVIEW
Red Sox set to call up 3B Devers for series vs. Mariners
 

SEATTLE -- The Boston Red Sox are ready for the Rafael Devers era, and they hoping adding their top prospect will solve their woes at third base.

Devers will be promoted to the major leagues Monday night when Boston opens a three-game series with the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field.

Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski announced after Boston's 3-2 to the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday that the team would call up its top prospect, Devers, for the Monday game.

The Red Sox have used seven different players at third base this season, and they have combined to hit .227 with seven home runs and 40 RBIs. That includes Pablo Sandoval, who batted .212 with four homers and 12 RBIs in 32 games before being released last week.

Devers was promoted to Triple-A Pawtucket on July 14. In nine games with the PawSox, the 20-year-old batted .400 with two homers and four RBIs. He also made four errors with Pawtucket.

"He's made some errors, young errors," Dombrowski said. "He has the hands, he has the arm. He's also made some good plays, too. But most of them are really more from a timing perspective, and I guess if you had your ideal scenario, you'd say, 'We'll let him just continue to go out and play third base and continue to play there,' but it's a situation, we're in need here and we think he's ready."

Devers could certainly fill a void in Boston, as the Red Sox have gone 5-6 since the All-Star break while averaging just 3.5 runs per game.

Devers, 20, has hit .311 with 20 homers and 60 RBIs between Double-A Portland and Triple-A Pawtucket this season. The only question seemed to be whether Devers, who up until 10 days ago was in Double-A, was ready to make the jump to the majors.

"On the field, he's handled it very well," Dombrowski said. "From a mental perspective, our people just continue to say that he continues to handle the challenges that are given to him. Our biggest concern with him has been that if we brought him up and he struggles like a lot of guys do, how would he handle it? Our people feel that he would handle it well at this point, they say that he's ready to tackle that next step."

While Devers is scheduled to join the team Monday, he is unlikely to start against Mariners left-hander James Paxton (9-3, 3.05 ERA). That means the left-handed-hitting Devers likely will get his first start at third base Tuesday against longtime Seattle ace Felix Hernandez.

Paxton is 4-0 with a 2.05 ERA in four starts this month after posting a 7.20 ERA over five outings in June.

Paxton last pitched Wednesday in Seattle's 4-1 win at Houston, when he allowed one run and six hits in seven innings.

"I just felt really good," Paxton said. "I was throwing the curveball for strikes, moving the fastball around, mixing in some cutters too, a few changeups. Everything was just feeling really good."

Paxton is 1-0 with a 0.56 ERA in two career starts against the Red Sox.

Boston is set to counter with left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez, who is making his second start after missing more than a month due to a right knee injury.

Rodriguez (4-2, 3.66) returned July 17 and allowed three runs and struck out eight while throwing 111 pitches in 5 1/3 innings against the Toronto Blue Jays.

"I thought with the layoff that Eddie had that was a strong five-plus innings of work here tonight," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "He kept us in this ballgame, we make a run to tie it, and unfortunately they push across the difference-maker the following inning."

Rodriguez is 1-0 with a 0.73 ERA in two career starts against Seattle.

The Mariners are 6-4 since the All-Star break, although they just lost three of four games to the New York Yankees, one of the teams they are chasing for an American League wild-card berth. That helped the second-place Yankees pull within 2 1/2 games of the first-place Red Sox in the AL East.

Ben Gamel and Guillermo Heredia drove in two runs apiece Sunday during the Mariners' 6-4 loss to New York.
