9/18/24	Red Sox Can Finally Solve This Hole With Internal Options This Offseason. For the first time in forever, the Red Sox do have internal candidates that could finally lock down that position for the foreseeable future. Kristian Campbell and Vaughn Grissom, both in Triple-A Worcester, likely headline that race to earn the starting job in spring training. Alex Cora and the Red Sox also cycle plenty of depth through the position. Enmanuel Valdez, Mickey Gasper, David Hamilton, Romy Gonzalez are just a few to rotate through this year.

9/12/24	Syracuse Met continues to struggle in 8-1 loss. The Syracuse Mets have run into a buzzsaw so far this week at Polar Park, dropping the first three games of their last road trip of the year to the Triple-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, the Worcester Red Sox. The Mets lost 8-1 on Thursday night and have lost the first three games of the series by a combined score of 23-5. Worcester (74-67, 40-26) picked up right where they left off on Thursday night, playing a run in the first and four more runs in the third to break out to a 5-0 lead after three innings of play. In the first, an RBI single from Vaughn Grissom plated Roman Anthony to make it a 1-0 game. Source: https://www.syracuse.com/mets/2024/09/syracuse-met...

9/06/24	Trevor Story's return represents a chance for the Red Sox to find a spark. On Sunday, Story started a rehab assignment with Triple A Worcester.

9/01/24	Vaughn Grissom Making Red Sox Infield Situation Interesting In Triple-A. The Boston Red Sox have shuffled around their infield depth throughout the 2024 season with the day-to-day lineup seeing multiple changes at first, second base and shortstop, which -- even with 25 games remaining in the regular season -- could still be the case as the team hunts down a playoff spot. Red Sox manager Alex Cora started infielders Romy González and Nick Sogard at second base and shortstop respectively for Sunday afternoon's 4-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers. González and Sogard went a combined 3-for-5 at the plate, finishing responsible for half of Boston's total hits (six) and signaling a further need for an offensive boost. Meanwhile, over 678 miles from Comerica Park, right-handed infielder Vaughn Grissom crushed a three-run home run for the Triple-A Worcester Red Sox at Polar Park.
