Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I think it's really close.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I don't think it's too far away from winning a World Series.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I know last year we didn't finish the way we won, but

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

And I say we because now I'm with the Pog, with the Rek, so I know I didn't play there, but I'm really excited for the new team.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I think we have a really good base and lineup.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

Pitching staff is really good and the relievers are great.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I think

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

We just need to keep playing with the same emotion, with the same feet, with the same energy day in and day out.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

Take care of all the little details that we're going to have to adjust during the season.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

And the most important thing for me, just play with heart, play with heart.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

No, they haven't talked to me about catching at all.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

But if the team needs it, like on down the road and we have an emergency for a day or two or whatever, I'll do it because I'm a team player first.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I wouldn't say no because I'm not that guy that has ego and say, oh, no, I got moved to first base.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I'm not going to catch him or not.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I came here because I know that I can help the team in any way I can to win.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

But yeah, if the team needs me down the road for a day or two or three, I don't know, I'll say yes.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

And for first base, it's a really tricky position because you're going to have to learn the angles, how to get to first base, how far you're playing, where you're going to be playing with the chiefs, who's hitting, who's low, who's fast.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

So there's a lot of questions about first base.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

Like I said, when you're willing to listen, willing to take tips, everything comes easier.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Willson Contreras On His Trade To The Red Sox

I think I'll say yes.
