For the Boston Red Sox, there’s no unit on the team that has had more turnover this offseason than the starting rotation.

The Red Sox added starting pitchers Sonny Gray and Johan Oviedo in trades with the St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates, respectively. Boston also signed left-handed starter Ranger Suarez to a five-year, $130 million contract.

Those players, in addition to other pitchers and catchers, reported to the team’s spring training facility in Fort Myers, Fla., earlier this week.

Fans hoping to catch those aforementioned players and others in Grapefruit League action will have a lot of opportunities to do so this spring.
