SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — At first this offseason, Rafael Devers watched as the Boston Red Sox didn’t retain Xander Bogaerts for the long-term as he signed a massive deal with the San Diego Padres.

Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports Our short-term solution to a second baseman couldn’t possibly be a guy we’ve become acquainted to seeing in the outfield, is it? Following an array of varying roster moves, the Red Sox 2023 depth chart is seemingly changing by the day. These transactions range from signing our closer of the present, Kenley Jansen (good?), to finally extending Rafael Devers to a long-term contract (good!), to designating Trevor Story as inactive due to elbow surgery (not so good…) following Xander Bogaerts’ departure to San Diego (inexplicably bad)...
