Don’t expect to see Mookie Betts at second base...at least to start Game Three. (NBC Sports Boston)

J.D. Martinez isn’t sure to play at all on Friday, but the Red Sox could obviously use him with the clutch hitting he’s shown off thus far in the postseason. (Rich Thompson; Boston Herald)

Despite the 2-0 lead in this series, you’re not going to see any complacency from this Red Sox team. (Bill Koch; Providence Journal)

One of Alex Cora’s many impressive traits is how he’s able to deal with the media. There’s a reason he’s so good at this aspect of the job. (Chad Finn; Boston Globe)

With Rick Porcello taking the mound for Game Three, the key will be his ability to properly utilize his entire arsenal. (Eno Sarris and Joe Schwarz; The Athletic) ($$)

Mookie Betts is incredible on the field, of course, and after Game Two he showed that he stays incredible when games are over. (Ryan Hannable; WEEI)
