Red Sox Predicted To Land Superstar Free-Agent Closer On $56 Million Contract

Should the Boston Red Sox make a bold play for the number-one closer available on the free-agent market?

The Boston Red Sox bullpen obviously must improve this winter, but should that mean they spend big on a free-agent closer?

With that being said, the Red Sox don't have a clear-cut closer for the 2025 season, as veteran Kenley Jansen is likely to depart in free agency. There are in-house options like rookie standout Justin Slaten and rehabbing All-Star Liam Hendriks that could make sense, but perhaps dipping into the free-agent market will be the safest solution.

"Of the 97 relievers with at least 100 innings since the start of 2023, Scott trails only Emmanuel Clase with a 2.04 earned run average. His 31.3% strikeout rate checks in 15th among that group, while his 50.4% ground-ball percentage ranks 22nd," the authors said. Franco predicted Scott would sign with the Toronto Blue Jays, while Adams paired him with the New York Yankees.
