Shortstop-of-the-future Jose Iglesias made a lasting impression in his 1st game in a Red Sox uniform on Wednesday night’s win over Boston College.
Manager Terry Francona called on Iglesias to pinch-run for starting shortstop Marco Scutaro after he singled in the 3rd inning.  Then in his 1st spring at-bat in the following inning, Iglesias jumped on [...]

It’s almost Spring Training, so it must be that time for Red Sox 2nd baseman Dustin Pedroia to have to get used to playing with another shortstop.  In recent years, Pedroia has played with Julio Lugo, Jed Lowrie, Nick Green and Alex Green.  This February – it’s going to be newly signed shortstop Marco Scutaro [...]

Red Sox GM Theo Epstein is looking forward to the start of Spring Training.  Epstein had a busy off-season – signing free agents – pitcher John Lackey, center fielder Mike Cameron, shortstop Marco Scutaro and 3rd baseman Adrian Beltre.  He also traded for outfielder Jeremy Hermida.  He’s had to deal with questions of how the [...]

The Boston Red Sox and Manager Terry Francona announced how the outfield will look in 2010.  With the signing of veteran center fielder Mike Cameron a few weeks ago, the Red Sox though it best to keep Cameron in center field once he joins the Red Sox.  Cameron is a 3-time Gold Glove winner in [...]

The Red Sox are still confident that they can hit well enough during the 1st half of the 2010 MLB schedule to stay in the thick of the playoff race.  The Red Sox expect Casey Kotchman to get a lot of time at 1st base with Kevin Youkilis moving over to 3rd base while Mike [...]

It’s official – the Red Sox inked Marco Scutaro to a 2-year, $11 million deal and he will serve as the Red Sox shortstop for at least the next 2 years.  Scutaro will keep the shortstop secure until prospect Jose Iglesias is ready to fill the void – Iglesias is just 19 years old, but [...]

The Red Sox are really taking their pursuit of free agent shortstop Marco Scutaro very carefully.  Because the Red Sox must give the Toronto Blue Jays 2 draft picks if they end up signing Scutaro (because he is a Type A free agent), they want to make sure that he is fully healed from the [...]

The discussion of the Red Sox shortstop for 2010 took an interesting turn this week.  Looks like it could come from within – 2nd baseman Dustin Pedroia?!
Pedroia played shortstop at Arizona State and in the minor leagues, and only moved over to 2nd base because the Red Sox were also trying to develop shortstop Hanley [...]

Alex Gonzalez signed a 1-year, $2.75 million deal with the Toronto Blue Jays last week.  That means that the Red Sox will have to look elsewhere to fill the void at the position.  The Red Sox acquired Gonzalez from the Cincinnati Reds during the middle of the 2009 MLB schedule.  In 44 games, Gonzalez batted [...]
