He won a Gold Glove in 2018, helping the Red Sox win the World Series that season as well.

>Bradley left the Red Sox for the Milwaukee Brewers in 2021, but returned for a second stint with the Red Sox in 2022. He played the 2023 season with the Kansas City Royals. He has not returned to the big leagues since, but is still putting on a show in Banana Ball.
