It’s no secret that second base has been a point of concern for the Red Sox this season. Sure, things have gotten better as of late and it appears bullpen upgrades will be a priority as the trade deadline approaches, but I think Boston needs to take a good long look at the options at second base too. One phone call I hope Dave Dombrowski makes is to Oakland to ask about Jed Lowrie.
Lowrie will be a free agent at the end of the year and is one of the most attractive trade chips the Athletics have.
