The Boston Red Sox acquired third baseman Caleb Durbin from the Milwaukee Brewers in a six-player trade on February 9, 2026, sending left-handers Kyle Harrison and Shane Drohan, infielder David Hamilton, and prospects Andruw Monasterio and Anthony Seigler to Milwaukee, along with a competitive balance round B draft pick. Durbin, 25, hit .256 with 11 home runs, 18 steals, and 53 RBIs in 136 games during his rookie season, finishing third in NL Rookie of the Year voting and leading the league with 24 hit-by-pitches. The move addresses Boston’s need at third base after Alex Bregman signed with the Cubs. The Brewers, aiming to strengthen their pitching depth, gained two pitchers and a draft pick, while adding infield depth. The Red Sox have not yet decided Durbin’s primary position, but he is expected to be a regular starter.
