Now is the time to get Michael Chavis time in left field

The trade deadline has come and gone, and while the Red Sox didn’t trade any star or core pieces as sellers, they did trade a couple of position players in Mitch Moreland and Kevin Pillar who were playing mostly every day. Even if neither of those players were part of the organization’s long-term plans, their departures could start to slightly open the shades towards what could be long-term plans. Those moves opened up both roster spots and plate appearances to be gobbled up by either depth veterans or young players and prospects.
