Red Sox prospect Xander Bogaerts took ground balls at third base Tuesday to prepare for the position he will play for the Netherlands in the World Baseball Classic. Bogaerts, a shortstop by trade, will start at third base against Boston College on Thursday. “He’s an infielder. You know what? He’s got a lot of natural ability and instincts there,” manager John Farrell told the Boston Globe. “We’ll get two days of workdays with him and then get him in a game.”
