Trevor Story got vaccinated against COVID-19 while finalizing his deal to join the Boston Red Sox, according to a report.

The Colorado Rockies traded Story to the Red Sox, who then signed the shortstop to a long-term deal.

There had been concerns about Story's status because the Red Sox share the American League East with the Toronto Blue Jays. Canada's vaccine mandate is unlikely to be lifted, so any opposing player not vaccinated will be forced to miss road games against the Blue Jays.

"It's a very personal matter. Decisions like that are kept between me and my family," Story said. "But with that being said, I'll be available for my teammates 162-plus. That's the main part."
