So, what is the rookie's best position? “Whatever makes the team better, that’s the position I play," Campbell said.

Kristian Campbell can play almost any position – and has – but on Friday afternoon he began working somewhere new. As Red Sox teammates and staff, including manager Alex Cora, looked on, the rookie went through first-base drills.

The Boston Red Sox are going to give rookie Kristian Campbell a try at first base. Campbell worked out at first ahead of Friday night's game against the Atlanta Braves at Fenway Park. Campbell entered the season as one of baseball's top prospects and was named Boston's starting second baseman after an impressive spring.
