FORT MYERS, Fla. — Weather permitting, here is what the Red Sox are up to today:

Bullpen sessions: Drake Britton, Chris Hernandez, Alex Wilson, Alfredo Aceves, John Lackey, Franklin Morales, Rubby De La Rosa, Ryan Dempster, Steven Wright and Jon Lester are scheduled to throw.

Non-throwing pitchers: The rest of the pitchers have three sets of defensive drills. They'll work on comebackers with throws to first and second. They'll work on covering first and home and then work on defending bunts, including squeeze plays.

Position players: They have a throwing program followed by base-running drills, individual defensive work and then batting practice. John Farrell has said base running will be a major point of emphasis this spring.

The Sox expect to be on the field at 9:50 and be finished around noon.
