"Manager Alex Cora explained that Story is a lead-by-example type of leader, noting: "The way he goes about it, he's not a vocal leader. He's not gonna get in people's faces, but he will show up and prepare. And he's gonna play hard, which is very important.""
"Cora highlighted Story's importance to the team's leadership: "What Trevor did last year, he played 154 games (he played in 157). That says a lot, right? The way he goes about it, he's not a vocal leader. He's not gonna get in people's faces, but he will show up and prepare.""
"Story led all Red Sox batters in home runs (25), RBI (96), runs (91), and total hits (161) last season. He is coming off a healthy year in which he played in 157 games, his first fully healthy campaign since signing with Boston in 2022."
The Boston Red Sox are preparing for the upcoming season with several roster moves and leadership decisions in place. Caleb Durbin has secured the starting third baseman position, and relief pitcher Danny Coulombe was signed to bolster the bullpen. Players returning from the World Baseball Classic include starting pitcher Brayan Bello. The team still needs to determine its fifth starter, with Connelly Early, Johan Oviedo, and Payton Tolle competing for the role. Manager Alex Cora identified Trevor Story and Garrett Crochet as the clubhouse leaders following Alex Bregman's departure. Story, in his fifth season with Boston, demonstrated his value by playing 157 games last season while leading the team in home runs, RBIs, runs, and hits.
