Tuesday’s MLB trade deadline saw some major movement around the sport, and the Red Sox were among the more active teams. While they didn’t truly plant their flag in the ground as a buyer or seller, they did ship out one major piece: catcher Christian Vázquez.
Vázquez was dealt to the Astros as the two teams face off in Houston, making for a particularly awkward situation for the 31-year-old. On Tuesday, after the news became official, he posted his thoughts to Instagram, looking back on his time with the Red Sox, the only team he has played for thus far in his MLB career.
