Connor Wong Faces Competition for Backup Catcher Role

The Red Sox are evaluating their backup catcher situation, with Connor Wong competing against Matt Thaiss for a roster spot. Wong, who has an option remaining, could potentially be sent to Triple-A Worcester, whereas Thaiss has an upward mobility clause in his contract that complicates roster decisions before Opening Day. The outcome of this battle will have significant implications for the team's pitching staff management.
