Nick Sogard

27-Year-Old ShortstopSS
Boston Red Sox
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sogard had his contract selected in the second half of 2024 and made his MLB debut. The 27-year-old appeared at every infield position while Boston dealt with injuries. He served mostly at second base, which remains a position of uncertainty leading up to the regular season. There are several candidates in camp, including hot prospect Kristian Campbell, a healthy Vaughn Grissom and David Hamilton, who started the most games at second base in 2024. Boston is also in on Alex Bregman, who almost certainly would start at the second. Sogard is unlikely to start the season as a starter and would have to make the club as a utility infielder.

Summoned from Triple-A
SSBoston Red Sox
September 3, 2025
The Red Sox recalled Sogard from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday. He'll start at second base and bat eighth in the Red Sox's series finale against the Guardians.
Analysis
Sogard will be joining the 28-man active roster as a replacement for outfielder Roman Anthony, who was placed on the injured list with an oblique strain, which is likely to keep him out for the remainder of the regular season. Though the Red Sox have two openings in the everyday lineup with Anthony and Wilyer Abreu (calf) on the shelf, Sogard won't necessarily be in store for a full-time role. Sogard's status as a switch hitter along with his ability to play multiple infield and outfield spots could work in his favor if the Red Sox elect to take a platoon approach to either of the vacant lineup spots, however.

Sogard could lose his place on the Red Sox's 26-man roster Sunday, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com.
Analysis
Sogard received three straight starts at first base from May 19-21, but Abraham Toro has dominated playing time at the position over the past week, and Boston will need a roster spot for Nate Eaton, who is expected to get a promotion from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday. Sogard hasn't made a huge impression in his 53 plate appearances this year with a .608 OPS.
