Ryan was also a draftee this season. He was selected to play the outfield since the lack of depth was a concern for the Redsox. Luttrell was been slowed by an injured ankle and has been unable to routinley practice with the team. Ryan will be given a chance to prove himself and make more opportunities to get himself in the starting lineup. With offense being a concern, the team hopes Ryan will be able to handle the bat and contribute to this team.
