Red Sox News & Links: Kristian Campbell makes the Opening Day roster

If you had told me at the end of last season that Kristian Campbell would begin 2025 on the Red Sox roster. . . I would have believed you. He just put up a historically great minor league season, looked too good for AAA during his brief stint in Worcester, and had a much clearer path to the big leagues than his friends Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer, owing to the gaping pit of suck that has been second base at Fenway in recent years. But things got complicated after the free agent acquisition of Alex Bregman and the early reports that he would play second with Rafael Devers at third and Masataka Yoshida at DH.
