As free agency draws closer to an end, Trevor Story has already chosen his new home. Earlier this week, the top free-agent shortstop and former Colorado Rockies star signed a six-year deal with the Boston Red Sox.

Before signing for the Red Sox, Story was heavily linked with a few other top teams, including the New York Yankees and Texas Rangers. But at the end of the day, Story chose Boston as his new home for the next few years.

Notably, with Story coming to Boston, the Red Sox have strengthened their already strong squad for the upcoming season. Not to mention, the deal might have also left the Yankees fans feeling awkward. During the lockout and even when free agency resumed, the Yankees were favorites to sign him. But the former Rockies shortstop ended up with the arch-rivals of the Pinstripes.

Recently, during his first media address as a Red Sox player, Story also revealed that it is like a dream come true for him to play for the Red Sox. He also expressed his love for the team. He said that wearing the Red Sox jersey will be an honor for him while in the ballpark.

It’s really an honor to put on this jersey and play in that ballpark every night… This is a very very attractive place for me and that’s why I chose this.”

Considering that the Yankees and Red Sox will be playing on the opening day of the regular season, it’ll be painful for the Yankees fans to watch him play for their rival team in the Bronx. How do you think Story will fare with the Red Sox in the 2022 season?
