The Red Sox pulled off a surprise move, sending Tsung-Che Cheng down to make room for newly acquired infielder Curtis Mead, who brings a solid bat (852 OPS) but isn’t yet ready to play — he’s joining the team for their upcoming West Coast trip. With Cheng’s departure, Andruw Monasterio is likely to handle shortstop duties, while Caleb Durbin may get reps there to add flexibility. The Sox are still waiting on Trevor Story’s return or Franklin Arias to step up, but Mead’s arrival should give them a much-needed offensive boost at a position that’s currently thin.
