The Red Sox have signed left-hander Matt Moore to a minor league contract, indicating he will join their big league camp for the remainder of spring training. Moore, 36, has had an extensive career with teams like the Angels and has struggled since undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2014. His trajectory shifted after a promising start, resulting in a series of injuries, including a knee injury in 2019. He showcased some success in Japan before returning to the MLB, where he faced challenges in both starting and swing roles.
The Red Sox have agreed to a minor league contract with left-hander , reports Rob Bradford of WEEI. He'll presumably head to big league camp for the remainder of spring training.
Once ranked among the game's top three prospects alongside and Bryce Harper, Moore had a nice start to his career but never got fully back on track following 2014 Tommy John surgery.
Moore struggled with the Giants and Rangers in 2017-18 and then missed nearly all of the 2019 season with the Tigers after suffering a knee injury in just his second start.
A nice 2020 run in Japan led to a 2021 deal with the Phillies, but Moore again struggled as a starter and was moved to a swing role.
