The Boston Red Sox appear to have settled on their approach regarding Kristian Campbell and Vaughn Grissom, signaling a clear direction for the two players as the season approaches. While both have been competing for roles within the lineup, recent roster moves and playing time distribution suggest that the organization has already made its decision.
Grissom, acquired in the trade that sent Chris Sale to Atlanta, has been viewed as a key piece for Boston’s infield plans. However, Campbell’s emergence as a versatile option has added an interesting wrinkle to the competition. With spring training performances being heavily evaluated, the Red Sox seem to be favoring one over the other in terms of playing time and positioning.
While the final roster isn’t set in stone, all indications point to Boston moving forward with a clear preference between the two. Whether that means Campbell gets more opportunities or Grissom locks in a starting role, the decision could have a significant impact on the team’s depth chart and lineup construction. As Opening Day nears, all eyes will be on how the Red Sox officially finalize their plans for both players.
