Mitch Moreland Brings his Gold Glove to Beantown

Last month after trading baseball's number one prospect for Chris Sale and swapping Travis Shaw for bullpen stud Tyler Thornburg, the Boston Red Sox made a far less sexy transaction by signing Mitch Moreland to a one year, $5 million contract. As everyone may know by now, there was a gaping hole in the heart of the […]
