The Red Sox traded for third baseman Caleb Durbin from the Brewers on Feb. 9, 2026, in a six-player deal to address their third-base needs.

The Boston Red Sox acquired third baseman Caleb Durbin from the Milwaukee Brewers in a six-player trade on February 9, 2026, sending pitchers Kyle Harrison and Shane Drohan, infielder David Hamilton, and prospects Andruw Monasterio and Anthony Seigler to Milwaukee, along with a competitive balance draft pick. Durbin, 25, hit .256 with 11 home runs, 18 steals, and a .334 on-base percentage in 136 games during the 2025 season, leading the NL with 24 hit-by-pitches and finishing third in Rookie of the Year voting. The move addresses Boston’s need at third base after Alex Bregman signed with the Cubs. The Brewers bolstered their pitching depth and added draft capital. The Red Sox have not yet decided Durbin’s primary position, but he is expected to be a regular starter.
