Marco Scutaro was introduced to the Boston media on Friday.
The shortstop, who signed a two-year deal with a mutual option for a third season, said he took a less money to play for a World Series contender.
"You get to a point where you just want to live the experience, just want to be in the World Series, just want to win the ring," said the 34-year-old Scutaro. "I think this is the perfect team to do that."
