Tom Caron sits down with Red Sox legend David Ortiz to discuss the crucial role of veteran leadership on a winning team. Ortiz shares how Jim Rice played a key part in his own career development, and he dives into Rafael Devers' emerging leadership style. Plus, Big Papi weighs in on whether the Red Sox can make a playoff push in 2025.

Also, Lou Merloni joins the show to talk about what the Sox still need before Opening Day, the potential of Garrett Crochet, Walker Buehler, and the revamped bullpen, and if the Red Sox have a real shot at reclaiming the AL East crown.

Finally, Tom catches up with top prospects Roman Anthony and Kristian Campbell to discuss their rise through the Red Sox farm system, adjusting to the business side of the game after the Kyle Teel trade, and the competitive energy surrounding Spring Training as they aim to crack the major league roster.

All this and more on 310 To Left, hosted by Tom Caron.
