Updating the second base injury situation

The Red Sox really have no right to complain about injuries considering they play in the same division of the Yankees, whose IL would certainly be in the conversation for best team in baseball. Still, the Red Sox have suffered from some big injuries this year as well, with most of those coming at second base. This was a position that was a black hole for most of 2018, and they brought back their two main second basemen from last year while also looking to the return of a franchise legend. Now, all three of those guys are hurt and time at the keystone position is being split between a glove-first minor leaguer and a top prospect who is nominally a third baseman.
