Bobby Kielty, who joined the Red Sox last season for the stretch run to the post-season, has agreed to return to the organization with a minor league deal, which includes an invite to major league spring training as a non-roster player. In 20 games with Boston last sason, Kielty posted a .231/.295/.237 line (12 hits/52 AB) with one HR and two doubles, scoring six runs and batting in nine. Kielty began the 2007 season with Oakland but missed significant time early with a knee injury and later with a torn left calf muscle before being released July 31. He has been assigned to AAA Pawtucket. Late last month the Red Sox also signed journeyman submarine RHP
Matt Miller. Miller has two-plus years of big league experience, most recently with Cleveland, and will provide minor league depth.
