Boston Red Sox Expected to Get Rid of $90 Million Player
The Boston Red Sox are expected to move on from designated hitter and occasional outfielder Masataka Yoshida this offseason as the club confronts a crowded outfield and looks to add more power. The Boston Red Sox are expected to remove designated hitter and occasional outfielder Masataka Yoshida from their roster this winter. This comes as the team faces a crowded outfield and is looking to add more power to its lineup. Yoshida, who signed a five-year, $90 million contract with the Red Sox in 2022, is owed $18 million in 2027, but releasing him would require the Red Series to eat that remaining salary. The team's outfield features Ceddanne Rafaela, Wilyer Abreu, and Roman Anthony, with Jarren Duran also under team control. The Red Sox may also consider trading Kristian Campbell rather than Yoshida if a deal requires a younger player.
