Bogaerts went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in Wednesday's 3-0 extra-inning win over Pittsburgh.
Bogaerts was moved up in the order -- from sixth to third -- taking the place of Mookie Betts (flu). Manager John Farrell's Opening Day batting order, with Bogaerts hitting sixth behind Mitch Moreland, generated quite a bit of discussion. But that's how the manager intends to play it early in the season. When Betts returns, you can expect Bogaerts back down the order. If Moreland, 0-for-9 with five strikeouts through two games, continues to be a non-entity in the middle of the order, Farrell will have to make an adjustment.
