How can the Red Sox bolster their roster if they don't swing for the fences? John Tomase highlights three intriguing free agent targets.
When it comes to predicting free agent contracts, few are better than Tim Britton of The Athletic. Using historical comps and analyzing WAR totals, Britton provides a solid framework for what a particular player might expect on the open market., it seems unlikely the Red Sox will seriously explore deals for Juan Soto or Corbin Burnes . But a few other names jump out for their combination of fitting a need without blowing up the payroll.
Red Sox owner John Henry has long opposed big-money free agent deals for starting pitchers, but getting Fried for less than $30 million annually represents a relative bargain.With Tyler O'Neill probably leaving in free agency, the Red Sox have an opening for a right-handed hitting outfielder, and Hernández would be perfect. The 32-year-old has smashed at least 25 homers in each of the last four seasons, including a career-high 33 this year, when he made his second All-Star team.
