Red Sox Notes: Anthony, Yoshida, Bregman
Briefly

Roman Anthony has reported that there has been no real progress on contract extension talks with the Boston Red Sox, stating, "There hasn't even been a single peep about it since I've been here." He noted that both sides are allowing him to focus on his gameplay. Anthony, currently 21, has a long time before free agency, which could enhance his earning potential significantly, especially if he develops into a star player. Currently, his performance metrics stand at .219/.345/.356 in 87 plate appearances. As contract discussions may intensify in the offseason, his representatives may weigh future free agency opportunities against extending now.
Roman Anthony stated, "There hasn't even been a single peep about it since I've been here," indicating no progress on extension talks. Both parties are focused on gameplay rather than negotiations.
Anthony is only 21 years old and has only hit .219/.345/.356 in a brief 87 plate appearances. His timeline for free agency could significantly impact his earning power.
The Red Sox entered the season with three top prospects, and while Kristian Campbell signed a considerable deal, Anthony's signing may be more complicated due to his higher prospect status.
Anthony's representatives may focus on a path to a robust free-agent market, making it difficult to negotiate an extension without substantial incentives.
