According to a Boston Globe report, the Red Sox have made “at least two offers” to shortstop Xander Bogaerts since the 2022 regular season ended — one before the slugger opted out of the final year of his three-year contract. , and another since then.
“We have been in contact with Xander since the end of the season, as well as with Scott [Boras], your agent. I’ll leave it there,” Red Sox president and CEO Sam Kennedy said Wednesday. “But we have had productive conversations.”
Bogaerts had one of the best years of his career in 2022, making his fourth All-Star Game and winning his fifth Silver Slugger by hitting .307/.377/.456 with an .833 OPS.
