Remember when I thought last week’s poll would be close? That was funny.

Nope, Fire Brand readers were thoroughly convinced that Grady Sizemore should be the starter in centerfield to open the year. Almost 80% of you (and John Farrell, too) voted for Grady over prospect Jackie Bradley Jr., and so my hopes of a competitive poll were crushed. It’s worth noting that both players made the active roster, as Bradley will be seeing time with Shane Victorino sidelined.

Who should start in centerfield for the Red Sox this season?

  • Grady Sizemore (79%)
  • Jackie Bradley Jr. (21%)
  • For this week, I’m asking you to look ahead and predict the future a little bit. With today marking the first day of the MLB season, I want you to tell me: who will be the Red Sox MVP in 2014?

    Who will be the Red Sox MVP this season?

  • David Ortiz
  • Dustin Pedroia
  • Mike Napoli
  • Xander Bogaerts
  • Grady Sizemore!
  • Jon Lester
  • Clay Buchholz
  • Koji Uehara
  • How could you forget [Player X]???
  • As always, cast your votes and I’ll be here next week with the results!
