The Boston Red Sox are actively pursuing free agent outfielder Anthony Santander, as reported by MLB insider Mike Rodriguez. This move comes amid their ongoing interest in superstar Juan Soto, whose free agency decision is imminent.
Additionally, the Red Sox are considering Teoscar Hernández as another option, although competition from the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees is strong. Santander's market is more open, especially after Tyler O’Neill's signing with the Baltimore Orioles, which limits his options.
Coming off a stellar season with the Orioles, Santander's impressive stats include 44 home runs and a Silver Slugger Award. Predictions suggest he could secure a lucrative contract, with estimates ranging from $80 million to $105 million over several years.
