The Red Sox announced another trade on Wednesday, acquiring infielder Zack Short from the Mets for cash considerations. With Trevor Story out for the season after shoulder surgery, and third baseman Rafael Devers dealing with ongoing injury issues, Boston will utilize Short in a periodic utility role.
"He was great to me throughout my draft process," Short said of Valentine to New York Post reporter Mike Puma earlier in 2024. "I actually saw him in Los Angeles last year. We were getting ready to take our pregame ground balls and all I heard was 'Shorty!' I was like, 'I don't think anyone in LA knows me,' and I turn around and there is Bobby V smiling ear-to-ear as he always did."
