Dansby Swanson didn't have the Atlanta career that Freeman did, but he was still a big part of a lot of Braves teams: first some underwhelming, and then some quite overwhelming.After 827 regular season games, 37 postseason contests, over 3,500 PAs, and an accrual of over 16 fWAR, he's moving on to Chicago's north side, where his lovely locks will have the chance to sway in the breeze of the Windy City.

Backup Red Sox outfielder Rob Refsnyder finished things off Wednesday night against the Colorado Rockies, delivering the biggest blow in a five-run seventh inning that propelled Boston to a 6-3 win at Fenway Park.He also got things going, too.Refsnyder, who was in the leadoff spot, singled on the first pitch he saw from Rockies lefty Austin Gomber and then promptly stole second, which was much to the delight of Red Sox manager Alex Cora and the beginning of a game-changing performance.

The Red Sox have been busy lately adding depth to their roster, an effort that continued Wednesday into Thursday with the reported addition of Raimel Tapia.Boston signed the veteran outfielder to a minor league deal, per multiple reports.Tapia was the first to break the news on his Instagram, and the New York Post's Jon Heyman relayed news of a minor league deal, and MassLive.com's

Raimel Tapia reportedly has found a new home.The 29-year-old signed with the Brewers on Tuesday and joined the team before Milwaukee's game against the Minnesota Twins, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.Tapia was designated for assignment by the Red Sox last week and cleared waivers, which made him a free agent.

It's impossible to say that the New York Mets and owner Steve Cohen spent with restraint this offseason after spending $801.6 million over a six-week stretch between November and December - but there is something to be said about how the Carlos Correa situation was handled.Rather than increase the 28-year-old All-Star's average annual salary to lure him away from the Minnesota Twins, the Mets held firm.

Red Sox "I think I'm more proud that I'm here right now than what I did last year."Daniel Bard's journey through baseball has had more than its fair share of twists and turns.A promising young reliever with a blazing fastball, Bard was a key cog in the Red Sox bullpen in 2010 and 2011.But severe control issues derailed his career, prompting Boston to designate him for assignment in 2013.

The Red Sox and the Yankees will wrap up their three-game series in the Bronx on Sunday night.Brayan Bello will be on the bump for the visitors when they to try win their first series of the season against their fiercest foe.The 24-year-old is coming off a quality start against one of the baseball's most potent lineups Monday when he limited the Tampa Bay Rays to three runs on six hits across six innings.

For the second straight night, the pitch clock nudged the usual Yankees-Sox crawl into a more brisk affair of well under three hours.The first two games of this rivalry series have been hotly contested pitcher's duels.The Red Sox took the first game 3-2, but the Yankees came out victorious Saturday night by a score of 3-1.

BOSTON - Alex Cora has been stressing the importance of defensive flexibility for his entire tenure as Red Sox manager.He got some good news Friday.Christian Arroyo will join the Red Sox on Saturday after making one final rehab appearances with Triple-A Worcester on Friday, per Cora, while Adam Duvall takes the next step in his injury recovery.

Sunday?s loss to the Phillies snapped the Red Sox's eight-game winning streak, their longest streak in nearly two years.In what is considered to be the toughest division in baseball, they are just two games behind the Orioles, a half-game back from the Blue Jays and 2 1/2 games ahead of the Yankees.

Red Sox After a sluggish start, Boston is now 14-6 since April 14, the second-best record in baseball over that stretch.Don't look now, but the Red Sox are on a roll.Following Boston's 11-5 victory over the Blue Jays on Thursday, the Sox have now won six games in a row and sit third in the AL East standings at 19-14.

The smile on the face of Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora all but confirmed that his club will get a big piece back Friday when they begin their first series of the season against the New York Yankees.Cora told reporters prior to Thursday's series finale with the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field that there is a "good chance" Adam Duvall will return against the Yankees, per MassLive's Christopher Smith.

Red Sox COMMENTARYThe Sox have used 38 players, collected from various deals, signings, and promotions, this season.On Friday morning, nine of Major League Baseball's 30 teams sat within two games of .500:The Red Sox, Minnesota, and Seattle (26-24); Pittsburgh (25-24); the Mets and Toronto (26-25); San Francisco (25-25); Miami (25-26); and Detroit (23-25).

Slotting Yoshida, a Red Sox newcomer and former Japanese standout, won't be as easy as it seems for Cora.Yoshida is touted for his incredible plate discipline and ability to get on base, making him a natural fit to hit leadoff.

Jarren Duran has a very important spring training ahead of him if wants to make the Red Sox 40-man roster.The speedy outfielder had a tough 2022 in Boston that went beyond his stats.Duran misplayed a ball in center field in July that led to an inside-the-park grand slam from now-teammate Raimel Tapia while he was a member of the Toronto Blue Jays.

Alex Cora and the Red Sox recently took a confident stance alongside Jarren Duran, and the club plans to do so again once a significant roster development comes through the wire.Boston showcased faith in Duran on Monday when it designated Raimel Tapia for assignment in order to create an active roster spot for the returning Christian Arroyo.

The Red Sox made their opinion of Jarren Duran abundantly clear Monday.Prior to the series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park, Boston needed to free up a roster spot for utility infielder Christian Arroyo, who was set to return from the injured list.Boston elected to designate Raimel Tapia for assignment even though the veteran outfielder had done a solid job in his role for two months and provided the club with a fairly versatile skillset.

The Red Sox have one of the top offenses in Major League Baseball when everything is working, scoring the third-most runs (262) in the American League through 50 games played.The bats have gone cold throughout the middle of May, however.Boston has averaged just 3.94 runs per game over its last 17, falling 9.5 games back in the AL East to mark their furthest distance back of the season.

It might have surprised some to see the Red Sox designate veteran outfielder Raimel Tapia on Monday to make room on the active roster for Christian Arroyo.But moving on from Tapia speaks volumes of the faith the Red Sox continue to have in Jarren Duran making an impact in the lineup."Where the game is going, he fits the mold," Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters prior to the series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park, per Chad Jennings of The Athletic.

Slowly but surely, the Red Sox are getting healthy, at least on one side of the ball.Boston activated infielder Christian Arroyo on Monday ahead of its series finale with the Tampa Bay Rays.The Red Sox, in a corresponding roster move, designated utility man Raimel Tapia for assignment.Arroyo has been on the injured list for almost a month after suffering a hamstring strain in early May.

Red Sox "He basically just told me, 'get your hands up, be athletic, act like you're going to hit the f****** s*** out of the ball.'"So far this season, Jarren Duran has consistently shown talents at the plate that he's hinted at over the past few years with the Red Sox.The 26-year-old outfielder began the year at Worcester but was called up to the majors after Adam Duvall went down with a wrist injury just a week and a half into the season.

Red Sox Boston will have 13 pitchers and 13 batters on its roster to start the season.After sharing their starting lineup for Opening Day against the Orioles, the Red Sox officially announced the rest of their 26-man roster.The team's March 30 roster consists of 13 pitchers and 13 position players.Boston will also begin the season with seven players on the major league injured list.

Red Sox The outfielder hit .326 in 17 games for Boston in spring training.It appears that on the final day of spring training, the Red Sox decided to go with Raimel Tapia as their fifth outfielder rather than Jarren Duran.According to the Boston Globe's Julian McWilliams, Adalberto Mondesi will be shifted to the 60 day injured list to make room for Tapia on the team's 40-man roster.

Will Alex Cora have a go-to catcher in mind by Opening Day?The Red Sox moved on from Christian Vázquez before last season's MLB trade deadline.And while the move did well by Vázquez, who won his second World Series ring with the Houston Astros, it has also left Boston with a series of options for the primary catcher role in 2023.

The Red Sox might not be done adding new players as the start of spring training nears.Boston has been busy of late, as it bolstered its outfield by signing Adam Duvall and addressed a need at shortstop through a trade for Adalberto Mondesi.Next up for Chaim Bloom and company could be Matt Moore, who the Red Sox have "checked in on," per MassLive's Chris Cotillo.

Red Sox Four players will make their Boston debuts Thursday afternoon against Baltimore.The Red Sox will start a vastly different lineup on Opening Day in 2023 than they did a year prior.Manager Alex Cora will pencil in just three of the same starters against the Orioles on Thursday as he did against the Yankees for last year's Opening Day.

Red Sox COMMENTARYAlmost nothing is off the table for the 2023 Red Sox, who will likely hit, but for whom pitching will be a major question.Man.Does this Red Sox team ever want to make you eat your words.The "nobody believed in us" cliche among big-time athletes, always desperate for motivation, probably dates to the first two humanoids racing each other out of the ocean.

Red Sox Yoshida was the most expensive free agent signing of Boston's offseason.Playing nine innings while trying to get to the bottom of whether Triston Casas, Boog Powell, or Moose Skowron is/was the first first baseman in MLB history to wear nail polish ...
1.It's probably an overstatement to suggest that Chaim Bloom's future with the Red Sox directly correlates with Masataka Yoshida's performance as a Major League Baseball rookie.

Red Sox spring training is underway in Fort Myers, Fla., but that doesn't necessarily Boston is finished roster-building.Chaim Bloom and company have been steadily active since the 2022 Major League Baseball season ended, which suggests the Red Sox front office will continue looking around even with 2023 Opening Day less than a month away.

Adam Duvall and the Red Sox: The Red Sox have agreed to sign outfielder Adam Duvall to a one-year contract, according to SportsGrid's Craig Mish and MassLive's Chris Cotillo.

After another day that saw a top free agent sign on with a club, here are three things we'll be keeping an eye on around baseball throughout the day: 1.How much more can the Mets spend?Mets owner Steve Cohen has the deepest pockets among MLB ownership, and he hasn't been afraid to use that to his organization's advantage since he purchased the team in September of 2020.

The Red Sox figure to be active this Major League Baseball offseason.But keep in mind: There's more than one way to skin a cat.While most headlines will center around Boston's own free agents (namely Xander Bogaerts and Nathan Eovaldi) and the biggest names available on the open market (Aaron Judge, Carlos Correa, Trea Turner, Dansby Swanson, Jacob deGrom, Justin Verlander, Carlos Rodón, etc.), the Red Sox presumably will leave no stone unturned in their quest to improve the roster for 2023 and beyond.

As the World Series came to a close late Saturday night in Houston, the offseason officially began Sunday morning at 9 a.m.ET when 131 players officially filed for free agency.The Braves have nine players on the list, headlined by shortstop Dansby Swanson and closer Kenley Jansen..@MLBPARelease: 131 Players Become XX(B) Free AgentsOne hundred thirty-one players today were declared XX(B) free agents.
