On February 9, the Boston Red Sox finally found the final piece of their infield by trading for Caleb Durbin and two other depth infielders from the Milwaukee Brewers. The addition opens a new position debate between Durbin and Marcelo Mayer.
The trade should also put to rest another potential position change. Even new Red Sox infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa agrees.
“I was joking around with Rafaela today, hoping he just plays one spot so he can’t qualify for the utility Gold Glove," Kiner-Falefa said.
The veteran said he intends to pursue the utility Gold Glove to help the Sox complete their transition in to a solid defensive team.
