Red Sox outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury beat the reporting date for position players by one day when he strolled in Wednesday morning and pronounced himself fully recovered from the fractured ribs that limited him to 18 games last season. Ellsbury deflected most questions about last season. "Every spring training is a fresh start for everybody," said Ellsbury, who will return to center field on a full-time basis now that the Red Sox have acquired Carl Crawford. "I feel good, really good," he said. "I worked hard in the offseason to get to where I'm at right now. I was cleared quite a while ago. I'm hitting, throwing, everything I need to do, I'm ready to go."
