Red Sox signed infielder Nick Green to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training.
Fantasy Spin: Green was a bust last year for the Yankees’ Triple-A club, hitting .212/.267/.317 in 208 at-bats. He’s a career .240/.309/.347 hitter in 703 at-bats as a major leaguer. He’ll be playing for Pawtucket when the season starts.
