MLB Rumors: Trevor Story and the Boston Red Sox have reached an agreement, per multiple reports. The free agent shortstop would presumably move to second base for Boston, given the presence of Xander Bogaerts at shortstop and Rafael Devers at third base.
Story, 29, was a first round pick of the Colorado Rockies in 2011, and is part of the elite group of shortstops that hit the free agent market this offseason. A down season in 2021 and concerns about his elbow softened Story’s market somewhat, and there has been some sentiment that he would follow the Carlos Correa path and sign a short-term deal allowing him to re-enter the free agent market in the next year or two.
