Roman Anthony Confident Red Sox Offense Will Be Fine Despite Power Questions
Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony expressed strong belief in the team’s offensive potential recently, directly addressing media concerns about a possible lack of power as preparations for the 2026 season intensify.
“I think we got a great squad offensively… I think we have a very complete lineup… it just feels very tight-knit in there… I think we’re gonna be just fine,” Anthony said, per Beyond the Monster’s Chris Henrique.
Boston reached the playoffs last year and enters the new campaign with heightened expectations. Team president Sam Kennedy has stated publicly that this group has “no ceiling.” Anthony’s confidence reflects the internal view that a combination of contact hitting, on-base ability, speed and situational awareness will offset any concerns about raw power numbers for Boston.
As pitchers and catchers report and full-squad workouts approach, the optimism in Fort Myers matches the tight-knit vibe Anthony described. Chemistry has long been a strength at Fenway Park, where small-ball execution and timely hits frequently decide games.
With a mix of veterans and rising talents, the Red Sox appear positioned for another competitive run, and Anthony’s words reinforce the belief inside the organization.
