This past offseason the Red Sox shamefully let Xander Bogaerts get away to join the San Diego Padres. At the time, our editor Dan asked if I wanted to write a reaction piece, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. As many of you know, either from listening to “The Red Seat” podcast or following my writing, he was far and away my favorite player on the team. Furthermore, I had spent so much time, both on podcasts and in writing, advocating for his importance and return to the team. I had said all that I could say about Bogaerts and when it became clear he was not coming back, I didn’t have anything left to give.
