Red Sox Seriously Considering Dansby Swanson
2 years agoThe Boston Red Sox appear to be seriously considering star free-agent shortstop Dansby Swanson now. Bringing Swanson aboard would allow them to keep Trevor Story at second base. Swanson's free-agent market is in very good shape, with the Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves among the other teams interested. Boston made a run to try and re-sign Xander Bogaerts, but he chose the San Diego Padres for 11 years and $280 million. The 28-year-old Swanson is quickly becoming one of the best shortstops in the game after spending his first seven years with the Braves, slashing .255/.321/.417. He was a first-time All-Star in 2022, hitting .277 with a .776 OPS, 25 homers, 96 RBI and a career-high 18 stolen bases in a full 162 games. Swanson has 52 long balls, 184 RBI and 27 stolen bases in the last two years and is as clutch as they come. Boston would be a great landing spot for him for fantasy purposes.
