BOSTON – The reporter approached Ryan Mountcastle’s locker yesterday, asked if he had a minute and explained that only one topic could be covered. The important one. You know it.
Mountcastle turned around, smiled and said, “Jackson Holliday.”
Of course. It wasn’t the best lobster rolls in New England.
Players learned about Holliday’s promotion late Tuesday night. They, too, have sources scattered throughout baseball.
“Somebody sent it to me over a text,” Mountcastle said. “Super excited for him and super excited for the team and fans to have him up. Hopefully, he does well. Super excited to have him here.”
