JOSE IGLESIAS RUMORS

Will Middlebrooks’ Injury Opens Door for Jose Iglesias to Show Off His Major League Value

BOSTON — It’s your move (again), Jose Iglesias. The Red Sox recalled Iglesias on Friday amid a flurry of roster moves, which included third baseman Will Middlebrooks going on the 15-day disabled list with a lower back strain. Suddenly, Iglesias — a player whose future is as unclear as anyone in the Red Sox system — has another chance to prove he belongs at the major league...

John Farrell Confident About Jose Iglesias at Third Base After Infielder’s ‘Limited Look’ at Hot Corner (Video)

It has been less than a week since Jose Iglesias began taking reps at third base in Pawtucket, but Red Sox manager John Farrell trusts the young infielder’s instincts enough to pencil him at the position Friday night. Iglesias impressed at shortstop during his six-game stint with the big league club back in April but has never seen action at the hot corner in the majors. “Talking...

Jose Iglesias Could Be Utility Option for Red Sox Later This Season, But Must Improve Offensively (Video)

The Red Sox were arguably the best fielding team in baseball through April, but the Boston gloves have stiffened since. The Sox entered Wednesday night ranked ninth in the American League in fielding percentage (.985), errors (25) and double plays turned (39), raising the question of what manager John Farrell can do to reverse this trend. Jose Iglesias‘ name has come up as someone...

Jose Iglesias Taking Grounders at Third Base, Second Base at Pawtucket to Provide Red Sox Some Roster Flexibility

Jose Iglesias usually plays shortstop, but it appears that he’s getting some work in at some other positions around the diamond. The Pawtucket infielder has been taking grounders at third base and second base before games, according to the Providence Journal, to provide the big-league Red Sox some increased roster flexibility. “”They said I’m moving around, just to get an...

Not hip, not hip, Jose!

It was expected that Jose Iglesias would be send down to AAA Pawtucket when Stephen Drew returned to the Red Sox from the DL, but what happened next wasn't expected. Iglesias has not been in the lineup for the last 3 days for an unknown reason, a reason that was released earlier today. Iglesias isnt playing because he has been benched, for disciplinary reasons. Apparently on...

Drew over Iglesias the wrong move for the Red Sox

There was a time when I supported Stephen Drew as one of the most underrated shortstops in baseball. If you search my site, you will probably find a post or two on the subject. But that was before he broke his ankle and fell out of favor in Arizona. Since that injury, Stephen Drew has not yet been able to recapture his elite shortstop status. I waited for years for Drew to have...

Your Morning Dump...where Iglesias won't be in the Majors for long.

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. It is a luxury. It is not a controversy. Jose Iglesias has been been a surprising early contributor to the Red Sox. But he remains, for now, a place-holder at shortstop. Stephen Drew is set to begin what is...

Your Morning Dump...where Iglesias is no longer a top prospect

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. In 2009, Jose Iglesias signed a contract with the Boston Red Sox when he was merely 19-years-old. He was projected to be the "next great" Boston Red Sox shortstop. Fast-forward to 2013 and Iglesias...
