“Similar to Caballero the other day,” manager Alex Cora said. “They took a chance. They’re really good at what they do base running-wise. Volpe with the hop-hop and he goes.

Carlos Narváez hasn't just been a pleasant offseason addition for the Red Sox. He's been arguably one of the best rookies in baseball.
