Red Sox prospect Jeter Downs has tough name to live up to
Carrying one of the most hated sports names in Boston is already enough of a burden, so Jeter Downs won't also try to be the guy who replaces Mookie Betts. The former Dodgers prospect, who was named after Hall of Famer Derek Jeter by his Yankees-loving mother, was acquired in the deal that sent Betts to Los Angeles on the eve of spring training. "Obviously, I'm going to get bombarded with this whole name thing," he said in the Red Sox clubhouse Wednesday before the team's first formal workout of spring training.
