Red Sox Fan Favorite Shares Heartfelt Message After Signing Elsewhere

The Boston Red Sox have lost a lot of on-field personalities over the last few months amid a roster reshuffling under new chief baseball officer Craig Breslow.

The lineup is projected to be roughly the same if not worse than it was last season but the clubhouse presence could shift notably.

One player who was a favorite personality in the organization was utility man Christian Arroyo, whose tenure with the Red Sox ended after four seasons.

The fun-loving utility man signed with the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday and shared his affinity for Boston.

“Red Sox, you took me in in 2020 while I had no clue what the future would hold,” Arroyo wrote on Instagram. “Little did I know I’d get to experience so many awesome memories with some of the best teammates and coaches a player could ask for. I hope I made you proud by wearing the uniform the right way and always giving it my all. 🤟🏻 Brewers let’s get this thing going!!!”

Arroyo was a productive player during his time in Boston, including posting a 103 OPS+ in 2021, his only winning season with the Red Sox.

The 28-year-old finished his Red Sox tenure hitting .264 with 64 extra-base hits including 18 home runs, 93 RBIs and a .716 OPS (93 OPS+) in 224 games played. Arroyo also was a steady presence defensively. He lacked range but rarely whiffed on a ball he could get to.

Arroyo will be missed in Boston though a new era of middle infield play is on the way. Vaughn Grissom is expected to be the everyday second baseman while Marcelo Mayer and Nick Yorke rising through the farm system.

It was only a matter of time for Arroyo.
