Dalbec went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run in Friday's spring contest against the Rays.

That's two homers in two games for Dalbec, who served as the first baseman after being the designated hitter Thursday. Thus far in four spring at-bats, he's left the yard twice and struck out twice. The Red Sox added Travis Shaw on a minor-league deal Friday, giving the team some insurance against the hitting woes Dalbec experienced in 2021. While he looks comfortable at the plate to begin the spring, he also mashed last spring training then went on to hit .240 with a 34.4 percent strikeout rate during the regular season.
