Bogaerts, the Red Sox’s primary shortstop for the past seven seasons, said Sunday that it would be great to have Story join the Red Sox, calling him one of “my top five shortstops that I like.” But Bogaerts added that the move doesn’t make him worry about his position.
“I play baseball. I’m not at the front office or [involved in] making those type of decisions,” Bogaerts said, noting that he hopes to stay at shortstop. “But he is a great player. So that’s all I got to say. If you brought in someone like that, it will help out the team.”
HR:
Enrique Hernandez, who has played multiple positions in his career and at times filled in at second for the Sox last season, said he hoped Story’s addition would allow him to settle down in center field. He also understood what Story would go through with a possible position switch.
“When I switched over to second, it almost felt like I was playing in front of a mirror,” Hernandez said. “Everything looked sideways, backward, whatever you want to call it. It was just weird. And especially with [Story], he’s been playing there his whole life. It might be a little different at first.
