Brock Holt is not a novelty act.
His ability to play multiple infield and outfield positions skillfully as well as swing a dangerous bat is not the type of broad and versatile skillset that the Red Sox envision lasting only as long as Holt’s tenure with the team.
And, no, the Red Sox do not want to see Holt go.
In fact, quite the opposite: They want more Brock Holts in their future.
They want to draft them, they want to develop them and then they want to integrate them onto their roster more and more often.
