Daily Red Sox Links: Tanner Houck, Rafael Devers, Mookie Betts

Are we getting close to Tanner Houck SZN? The right-handed prospect is on the taxi squad and there’s a chance we could see his major-league debut this weekend. (Jen McCaffrey; The Athletic)

Xander still believes! Maybe we should too? The team’s star is holding out hope that the Red Sox are going to come back in 2021 with a roster that can contend. (Julian McWilliams; Boston Globe)

We are starting to see results from the 2016 draft class, both with some big swings up in the majors as well as some encouraging performances down at the Alternate Site. (John Tomase; NBC Sports Boston)

Rafale Devers is back and swinging the bat like we all know he can! (Chris Cotillo; Mass Live)

The Tampa Bay Rays started the first all-lefty lineup against the Red Sox last night. (Andrew Simon; MLB.com)

Sooo...Mookie played second base the other night. That’s pretty cool. (Jesse Pantuosco; WEEI)
