This is old news for many at this point, but we’re catching up on things we missed and one of those things is the fact that the Red Sox added to their position player depth on Tuesday. If you’ll recall, earlier in the year Boston sent Roenis Elias back to Seattle for a player to be named later. Well, the player has been named. In exchange for the left-handed pitcher, the Red Sox will receive 25-year-old outfielder Eric Filia from the Mariners.
The #RedSox today acquired minor league OF Eric Filia from the Seattle Mariners as the player to be named later in the trade that sent LHP Roenis Elias to Seattle on April 23.
