There are a lot of extended speculation around the Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony But he told Wey’s Rob Bradford that there was no real progress in that regard. “Since I’ve been here, no one has even peeked at it,” Anthony said. He added, “both sides have done a great job of getting me to play.”
Sox has entered this year Marcelo Mayer and Christian Campbell. During the winter, all three revolved around extended rumours, and Campbell did eventually put the pen on paper, signing the eight-year 60mm deal in early April.
Anthony’s deal may be younger than Campbell’s deal, because he is two years younger and is more of a high prospect on the ladder. Anthony is only 21 years old at the moment. If he stays in the minor league forever, he will be free agents after the 2031 season, which will be his 27-year-old campaign.
If he can develop as he hopes, that will allow him to make money online. So far, he has only reached .219/.345/.356, but in the sample of 87 plates. If Sox has confidence in his ability to hit the ceiling, they will have the motivation to lock it up as soon as possible. Otherwise, his income capacity will only increase as he becomes more certain and closer to arbitration and free agency.
Although from the perspective of Anthony and his representatives, they will certainly see a healthy free agent market path in a few years and need strong motivation to give up on that. Currently, according to Anthony’s comments, it seems that he is mainly focused on his own gameplay. Perhaps more attention will be paid to contract negotiations during the offseason.
Elsewhere in the news surrounding the Red Sox, Yoshida Masataka Yesterday, he hoped to finally return from the ongoing shoulder problem, began his rehabilitation mission. Although the manager ÁlexCora It understates the importance of this work.
According to Masslive’s Sean McAdam and Chris Cotillo, Cora put this work into Yoshida, preparing for an emergency. “I wouldn’t think of him starting at first base, but if something crazy happens, at least he can fall and knock down the ball on the ground,” Cora said.
Yoshida has only participated in outfields during his career in North America and Japan. However, Sox currently has a rather crowded mixture on the grass made of Anthony, Ceddanne Rafaela,,,,, Jarren Duran,,,,, Wilyer Abreu and Rob Refsnyder. At the same time, the club has been trying various things at first base since the beginning of the club Triston Casas Injuried. Rafael Devers Not wanting to play there, which led to his deal in San Francisco. Utilities Players Abraham Toro and Romy González The time to be separated just now.
This provides some logic for getting Yoshida to work there. It also aligns with his injury as he was able to hit a lot this year, but throwing has been the problem. Since Dever has been in the designated hitter position for most of the year, it is impossible to throw Yoshida’s Yoshida at all. Now that Devers has disappeared and Yoshida is getting healthier, his game time isn’t blocked as it used to be, but adding a first base to his track still makes sense.
Speaking of roster, the third baseman Alex Bregman Probably coming back from the injured list soon. Cora’s Chris Cotillo’s Per Chris Cotillo hopes Bregman will return to the club’s homeland before the All-Star break, from this Monday to the next Sunday. Mayer has covered the location to a large extent recently, so when Bregman returns, he can move to second base. Campbell has been chosen by minors David Hamilton Most nights are on the cornerstone. Hamilton hits only .174/.215/.278 this year, so he should hit the bench or minors.
Bregman performed well before Limb Labor sent him to Illinois State University, with his WRC+ of 158. This makes it very likely that he will trigger his opt-out and return to free agent at the end of the season. If he can take his place, he will provide a big boost to the Boston squad and resume the pace of triggering opt-out.
His contract situation has led to recent speculation in two different directions. With his potential return of his looming free agent, there is some smoke on the trade front, and it seems possible that Sox will use some of the money saved in the Devers trade to lock in Bregman for a long time. They are currently 44-45 and 2.5 games in the playoff location.
