Despite recent talk of the Sox looking to move their Spring Training to Sarasota, Lee County Florida officials are confident that the Sox are staying put.
Lee County Deputy Manager Bill Hammond told WBBH TV the Red Sox will remain in Southwest Florida. “There is no push and go thing right now. We’re not in that mode, we’re not going to lose the Sox,” said Hammond. “We’re keeping them here and that’s the message the county has given to (Red Sox COO) Mike Dee.”
The TV station has launched a petition drive to keep the Sox Spring Training in Lee County.
