Earlier in the week, after being released by the Blue Jays, Troy Tulowitzki worked out for a number of MLB teams as he looks for a new team to try and complete a major comeback. The shortstop was once, of course, one of the very best players in baseball but has battled extreme injury issues over the past few years. According to Tim Brown of Yahoo!, the Red Sox were among the teams that attended the workout. That’s pretty interesting!
It gets even more interesting, too. One wouldn’t expect the Red Sox to be interested in a shortstop like Tulowitzki — or at least I wouldn’t — but according to Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe, it wasn’t just due diligence.
