    Why Spring Training Has Not Been 'Fun' For Red Sox Closer Kenley Jansen

    Kenley Jansen admitted his second season with the Boston Red Sox is not off to an enjoyable start. The 36-year-old Red Sox closer already is dealing with minor ailments, which have pushed back his ramp up period and jeopardized him starting the season on time. Jansen entered spring training with lat soreness and was scratched from what was supposed to be his second Grapefruit League appearance Monday due to lower back tightness, per The Boston Globe's Alex Speier. Jansen's spring schedule not going as planned certainly has dampened the mood of the veteran right-handed reliever.
