The Red Sox picked up Max Ferguson in the Hosmer deadline trade. This from today's Boston Globe:
The 22-year-old’s high walk rate (17.4 percent) suggests strike-zone discipline but potentially too much passivity. Still, his up-the-middle defense (he plays mostly second, but also short and center) and speed suggest that if he can get on base at a decent clip, he could be a nice bench contributor."
