NAME: Rico Petrocelli
POSITION: Shortstop, Third Base
WHY IS HE HERE?: Petrocelli spent his entire 13-year career with the Red Sox and was a two-time All Star as well as a part of two pennant-winning teams. He holds the team record for home runs by a shortstop in a single season, which was a league record for almost 30 years.
WOULD I PUT HIM IN IN 2001?: Yes.
ANY BETTER CHOICES IN 2001?: Any better choices at the time are already in the set. Petrocelli was not a big star, but due to spending his whole career in Boston and having some great seasons gets him a place.
WOULD I PUT HIM IN NOW?: Yes.
ANY BETTER CHOICES NOW?: I would not replace Rico, but I would definitely want Mike Lowell, Rafael Devers and Xander Bogaerts in alongside him.
