BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red Sox acquired three-time All-Star
Willson Contreras from the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday in a
trade for right-hander Hunter Dobbins and two pitching
prospects.
The 33-year-old Contreras is a .258 hitter with 172 homers and
548 RBIs in 10 seasons with the Cubs and Cardinals. He spent
most of his career as a catcher before moving to first base last
year, when he batted .257 with 20 homers and 80 RBIs.
Dobbins, 26, went 4-1 with a 4.13 ERA as a rookie in Boston last
year before tearing the ACL in his right knee and missing the
second half of the season. The Cardinals will also receive
Single-A righties Blake Aita and Yhoiker Fajardo.
St. Louis also sent cash to Boston as part of the deal.
