    The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, May 18, 2021 * The Boston Globe Red Sox plan to increase roster versatility soon with promotion of Danny Santana Alex Speier Man-for-all-positions Danny Santana could join the Red Sox roster as soon as the current six-game road trip. Santana has hit .364/.423/.682 with two homers, a double, and a steal in six games with High A Greenville and Triple A Worcester. He has played shortstop, second, third, left, and center in those half-dozen contests. “He’s almost there,” manager Alex Cora said. “We’ve been moving him around all over the place. He’s moving well. “This is a guy, it gives us another alternative. Let’s see where it takes us. We feel good about where he’s at, not only physically, but as a hitter and as a player.” Santana, 30, had an April 30 opt-out in his minor league deal, but he and the Red Sox agreed to push that date into May when the start of his season was delayed by a foot infection in spring training. He’ll remain in Worcester at least through Tuesday, but his ability to move all over the field and switch-hit could prove particularly valuable during Boston’s weekend series against Philadelphia, during which National League rules will be in effect (with no designated hitter). In 2019, Santana hit .283/.324/.534 with 28 homers and 21 steals in 130 games for the Rangers. But in 2020, while limited to 15 games by an elbow injury that ultimately required modified Tommy John surgery in September, his numbers slid to .145/.278/.273.

For just over 30 days in February and March, Florida is in the spotlight of the national sports eye as Major League Baseball players prepare for their upcoming seasons.
