Dombrowski: Red Sox committed to Hanley Ramirez at 1st base

Published Oct. 13, 2015 4:28 p.m. ET

BOSTON (AP) New Boston Red Sox boss Dave Dombrowski says the team is committed to playing Hanley Ramirez at first base next season.

Dombrowski says Ramirez and his representatives are also on board with the plan.

The team's president of baseball operations says he's going into next season looking for a front of the rotation starter and some arms for the bullpen. But the team is largely set with position players.

The outfield of Mookie Betts, Jackie Bradley, Jr. and Rusney Castillo showed promise late last season after the Red Sox fell out of the race early. Pablo Sandoval, Zander Bogaerts and Dustin Pedroia are entrenched in the infield. David Ortiz is signed for one more year at designated hitter.
