* Here it is, now September, and the Red Sox still haven’t figured out second base.
Over the first five months of the season, 10 different players have started games there: David Hamilton, Vaughn Grissom, Romy Gonzalez, Zack Short, Enmanuel Valdez, Pablo Reyes, Nick Sogard, Mickey Gasper, Jamie Westbrook and Connor Wong. That list doesn’t include Ceddanne Rafaela, who played a half dozen games there as an in-game defensive substitute.
