Boston Remaining Active In Bullpen Search
3 mins agoAccording to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com, the Boston Red Sox remain active in the relief pitcher market. Cotillo said that even though the team was targeting Tanner Scott, who signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier on Sunday, the team wants to add "another veteran reliever" to their bullpen. While several of the names the team was targeting, including Scott, have signed with a new club, some of the remaining names are Kirby Yates, David Robertson, and Kyle Finnegan, among others. While the Red Sox already brought in Aroldis Chapman as a high-leverage option, another strong arm would significantly boost this bullpen. However, Cotillo noted that adding another right-handed bat remains the "top priority," while the bullpen is a close second. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring this situation, but for now, Chapman is expected to be the top option for the ninth inning.
