Tanner Houck Open To Extension With Red Sox
2 years agoThe Boston Red Sox have discussed a long-term extension with right-hander Tanner Houck after locking in Garrett Whitlock to a four-year, $18.75 million deal 11 months ago. The talks with Houck didn't get very far last year, though, and haven't resulted in a deal or offer from Boston. He'll turn 27 in June and is in team control for five years. Houck has a 9-9 record with a 3.02 ERA in 53 major-league outings (20 starts) since his debut in 2020. If the right offer is made, Houck is open to an extension with Boston. The former first-rounder has found success as a starter and reliever early in his career, and he's competing for a rotation spot this spring, which could make him even more valuable in fantasy. It's unclear if Houck and the Red Sox will revisit a new contract in camp.
