Masataka Yoshida is set to make his 2025 Red Sox debut Wednesday night following a lengthy recovery from offseason shoulder surgery, which will lead to some changes in the Boston outfield.

Cora envisions Yoshida and lefty-masher Rob Refsnyder platooning at the DH position while also continuing to mix both players into the outfield alongside Wilyer Abreu, Roman Anthony, Jarren Duran and Ceddanne Rafaela.
