The Dodgers on Saturday officially announced their pact with the two-time Cy Young Award winner, which has a total value of $182 million over five years.<\/p>\n<p>With Snell out of the picture, Corin Burnes and Max Fried undoubtedly are the Red Sox\u2019s best options for starters on the open market. Fried probably is the more likely of the two to end up in Boston, and the New York Post\u2019s Jon Heyman on Sunday projected what a new contract could look like for the star southpaw.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis 139 ERA-plus is eighth best all-time,\u201d Heyman wrote. \u201cThe Yankees, Red Sox, Jays, Orioles, Mets, Cubs, Giants and his hometown Dodgers are probable players. Red Sox need a lefty. $166M, 6 years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fried turns 31 in mid-January, so a six-year investment in the two-time All-Star wouldn\u2019t be very reckless. The 2021 World Series champion also has proven to be pretty durable, logging 131 starts over his last five full seasons (not including the shortened 2020 campaign).<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Red Sox brass has made it clear the club is willing to spend big to land high-end talent. The potential challenge for Craig Breslow and company will be convincing Fried that his best opportunity resides in Boston.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An MLB insider projected what it would cost the Boston Red Sox to sign free-agent starting pitcher Max Fried.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":14353,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14350","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
