| 4/05/25 | Will Kristian Campbell finally halt the yearslong merry-go-round at second base for the Red Sox?. In the eight seasons that followed, the Red Sox used 38 different starters at second base, none for more than 92 games in a single season. The long list of starters at second base includes two catchers (Christian Vazquez and Connor Wong), two guys named Hernandez (Marco and Kiké), two players from Taiwan (Tzu-Wei Lin and Yu Chang) and four players who were All-Stars with other teams before they came to Boston (Ian Kinsler, Jose Iglesias, Brandon Phillips, and Justin Turner).

Not only do major league teams have a phalanx of in-house pitching and hitting coaches, they often work with private coaches and facilities.

| 7/08/24 | Twins' Christian Vazquez aims to ride momentum into matchup vs. White Sox. Minnesota Twins catcher Christian Vazquez is batting just .204 entering Monday night's three-game series opener against the host Chicago White Sox, but recent success has brightened his spirits. Vazquez hit a walk-off home run in the ninth inning against Houston Astros closer Josh Hader on Sunday and has three straight multi-hit games to open July. "The game is so hard, and you never can stop working, and I think that's where I'm at right now," Vazquez said. Source: https://www.wfmz.com/partners/field_level_media/tw... |

| 1/30/24 | 2023 In Review: Wilyer Abreu or Won't-Yer Abreu?. The return from the Christian Vazquez trade is looking pretty good. Enmanuel Valdez, a power hitter who is a versatile fielder, at least, though not a particularly sound one, got the early headlines at second base. Wilyer Abreu, who would eventually be named to the postseason Triple-A All-Star team for Worcester (and would become a dad in August!), got the call to the Majors late in the season and used his opportunity to make a name for himself, as well. Abreu's runs above average value was below average on every other pitch he was offered. Source: https://www.overthemonster.com/2024/1/30/24055148/... |

| 8/01/23 | What we're hearing about the Red Sox ahead of Tuesday's MLB trade deadline. Much like last season, it looks like the Red Sox would like to be buyers AND sellers at Tuesday's 6 p.m. trade deadline. Last year, Bloom sent away catcher and clubhouse leader Christian Vazquez ahead of the deadline, which sent the wrong kind of message to the team. The Sox were still kinda, sorta in the playoff hunt when he made that move, but it greatly deflated the clubhouse and a tailspin ensued shortly after. Fast forward to this season, and while the Sox are way out of the AL East, they are very much in striking distance for a Wild Card spot.

| 7/26/23 | Chaim Bloom Reflects On Lessons From 2022 Red Sox Deadline. The 2022 trade deadline featured both additions and subtractions for the Boston Red Sox. Whether it was the departure of former World Series champion Christian Vazquez or the arrival of rental outfielder Tommy Pham, the front office mixed both buying and selling at the deadline. With under a week to go until the 2023 trade deadline, chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom reflected on how lessons from a year ago with shape his own actions at the key date this season. “One thing we try to do is actually review it afterwards, whether we are high-fiving each other or sitting there with our arms folded,” Bloom told Chris Cotillo and Sean McAdam on MassLive's The Fenway Rundown podcast.

| 7/06/23 | Tomase: Red Sox can't afford another wishy-washy trade deadline. Major League Baseball's trade deadline is really about one thing: looking in the mirror and being honest about what you see. Last year, the Red Sox butchered this exercise. First they saw an also-ran, so they dealt starting catcher Christian Vazquez across the diamond to the Astros while taking batting practice in Houston. Then they saw a contender, which led them to change course and swing deals for Tommy Pham and Eric Hosmer, while holding onto impending free agents Xander Bogaerts, Nathan Eovaldi, and J.D. Martinez, all of whom signed elsewhere. Source: https://www.nbcboston.com/news/red-sox-cant-afford... |
| 6/22/23 | Connor Wong Is Already One Of The Best Catchers In Baseball. If, at anytime within the past three years, you had told me that the Red Sox would have a catcher who was actually really good at throwing out baserunners, I would have laughed in your face. To be fair, Christian Vazquez was capable of having a pretty good year in that department, but he would then apparently forget how to throw a ball the next, swinging between positive and negative defensive run values. Connor Wong hasn't even had a full season yet, but so far he looks great on the defensive end and all we can hope for is consistency. Wong ranks fourth in Major League Baseball in catcher pop time, Caught Stealing Above Average, and Catcher Stealing Runs (translation of CSAA in run value).
