| 4/20/25 | Red Sox-Mariners Trade Idea Sends Red-Hot 24-Year-Old Slugger To Seattle. The positional logjam for the Boston Red Sox extends all the way to the Triple-A roster. It's a good problem to have in theory, but the Red Sox have about 16 capable major league hitters duking it out for 13 roster spots. Second baseman Vaughn Grissom is in perhaps the most difficult spot of anyone. A year after being acquired in a one-for-one swap with Cy Young winner Chris Sale, Grissom lost the starting job in spring training to rookie sensation Kristian Campbell.

| 4/19/25 | Red Sox Could Sell High On Surging 24-Year-Old Due To Position Player Logjam. Every Boston Red Sox fan is aware by now that their team has what most analysts are calling a "good problem." The Red Sox have too many position players. One young player flying under the radar at the moment is second baseman Vaughn Grissom, who the Red Sox are allowing to become more of a utility infielder in Triple-A right now. Grissom, the former top prospect acquired in the Chris Sale trade with the Atlanta Braves, lost the competition for the starting job to rookie sensation Kristian Campbell during spring training.

| 3/29/25 | This Motivates Young Red Sox Infielder In Consequential 2025 Season. Vaughn Grissom never got his true shot as the everyday second baseman for the Boston Red Sox in 2024. Illness and injuries negated most of his time at the MLB level in his first year with the Red Sox. Kristian Campbell took the Opening Day spot on this year's roster, leaving Grissom to start the season with Triple-A Worcester. The 24-year-old still has plenty of baseball growth ahead and immediately gets the chance to prove his eventual worth to the Red Sox. Source: https://nesn.com/2025/03/this-motivates-young-red-... |

| 3/28/25 | Vaughn Grissom responds to Red Sox decision to start him at Triple-A in 2025. Vaughn Grissom entered spring training 2025 surrounded by a combination of expectations and praise. Grissom's first year in the Boston Red Sox organization was mostly lost due to injuries that either kept him on the bench or rehabbing in the minor leagues. The infielder didn't bounce back well, and he batted .259/.385/.373 over 55 games in Triple-A and just .190/.246/.219 in 31 major league games. Boston fans hoped the 24-year-old would rebound and come back better this winter, and some compliments from Alex Cora made it seem possible.

| 3/27/25 | Young Infielder Staying 'Optimistic' About Uncertain Red Sox Future. The Boston Red Sox saw Vaughn Grissom as part of their long-term plans when they traded Chris Sale for the middle infielder last offseason. Grissom is far down the depth chart at second base, being surpassed by top prospect Kristian Campbell, who got the start on Opening Day, and David Hamilton. It led to Grissom beginning this season with Triple-A Worcester. Red Sox manager Alex Cora indicated when Grissom got sent down last week that Grissom's next opportunity in the big leagues might not come with Boston.

| 3/16/25 | Alex Cora Hints At Favorite To Win Red Sox Starting Infield Job. The Boston Red Sox only have a few position battles taking place across the diamond during spring training.

| 12/26/24 | Yankees $45 Million Two-Time All-Star Loosely Linked To Red Sox: 'Great Pickup'. Second base was easily the biggest hole for the Boston Red Sox in 2024. Vaughn Grissom, who was acquired in the Chris Sale trade, was supposed to lock down the position, but his entire season was derailed by injuries from the jump, and he couldn't find his footing in the limited time he got in the majors. Enmanuel Valdez got the Opening Day start, and David Hamilton surprisingly wound up playing the most games at the position. All in all, the Red Sox used nine players at the position last season, which included cameos from starting catcher Connor Wong and recently-traded minor leaguer Mickey Gasper.
