Red Sox' Masataka Yoshida threw out to 90 feet Tuesday. "So we've still got a long way to go," Cora said.

Fantasy Impact:

Yoshida’s .321 average and .785 OPS in 9 DH starts over 28 spring plate appearances shine, but Tuesday’s 90-foot throws lag, with Rafael Devers set as Boston’s DH, likely IL-bound due to outfield limits. The 31-year-old needs rehab games. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should stash him, expecting his bat to boost the Red Sox once cleared midseason.
