Red Sox sign Kyle Wren to minor-league deal

One of the low-key issues with the Red Sox roster is their lack of outfield depth outside the major-league roster. Now, the extent of the issue depends on how strict you want to be about what it is to be an outfielder. If you consider Brock Holt, Tzu-Wei Lin and Sam Travis as outfield depth, then they have plenty of bodies. If you’re looking for real, full-time outfielders? Well, the best option in Triple-A is probably Rusney Castillo, and financial reasons will keep him out of the majors. So, the Red Sox are throwing another option on the wall and seeing what sticks.
