Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com reports that the Red Sox are expected to hang on to Marco Scutaro now that Jed Lowrie has been traded. The Sox were shopping both infielders, but they'll keep Scutaro as their starting shortstop now that Lowrie has landed in Houston. The 36-year-old will be backed up by Nick Punto and presumably will hand the shortstop job off to Jose Iglesias in 2013 after his contract expires.
