Red Sox Star Predicted To Sign $40 Million Blue Jays Deal After Rejecting Boston…

What will become of former Boston Red Sox standout Nick Pivetta now that the big-name free-agent pitchers are off the board?

Though he had just a 4.29 ERA in five years with the Red Sox, Pivetta became something of an advanced stats darling at the end of his Boston career, and the Red Sox tendered him the qualifying offer, sensing that his market would be stronger than his numbers would indicate.

Once Pivetta turned down that one-year $21.05 million QO, however, Boston quickly filled out their rotation, trading for Garrett Crochet and signing Walker Buehler for that exact dollar amount. Now, they’ll collect a draft pick at the end of the second round if Pivetta signs elsewhere.

The Boston Red Sox have been linked to pretty much every somewhat big-name free agent so far this offseason.

Boston already has improved the starting rotation and is looking to add some more offense. It has been reported that the Red Sox have an interest in adding right-handed pop at second base and one player the club reportedly had some interest in is former New York Yankees All-Star Gleyber Torres, according to the Boston Globe’s Alex Speier.

“The Red Sox showed some interest in free agent Gleyber Torres — who would have filled the right-handed-hitting second baseman profile — but never made an offer to the 28-year-old before he agreed Friday to a one-year, $15 million deal with the Tigers,” Speier said. “The Sox were believed to have other priority targets ahead of Torres.”
