\"BREAKING:<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Boston Red Sox\u00a0have made another pitching move this offseason. After\u00a0trading for Garrett Crochet from the Chicago White Sox, they signed Patrick Sandoval to a two-year deal. Now,\u00a0Walker Buehler\u00a0has joined the Red Sox on a one-year contract after testing the free agency waters. Yahoo\u2019s Russell Dorsey\u00a0broke the news on Monday.\u201cBreaking: Right-hander Walker Buehler and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on a one-year, $21.05 million deal which includes incentives, sources tell Yahoo Sports.\u201d<\/p>\n

Buehler was hurt for the entire 2023 season and came back for a sluggish 2024 campaign. In 16 regular-season starts, he posted a 5.38 ERA with only one win. But\u00a0in the playoffs, the Buehler of old came out, making this a gamble Boston was happy taking. He closed out the World Series for the Dodgers and now joins the AL East.<\/p>\n

The Red Sox needed pitching after a brutal 2024 season. While they added Crochet to top their rotation, depth is important in their deep division. Nick Pivetta is a free agent and Sandoval will not return from his elbow injury until mid-year. Buehler will start valuable games early in the season and can shift into a depth starter or bullpen piece when Sandoval comes back.<\/p>\n

The Red Sox can continue to add after the Walker Buehler signing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Red Sox threw their hat in the ring for Juan Soto. David Ortiz and other famous alumni joined the recruiting pitch but it did not work. The 26-year-old signed a historic contract with the New York Mets. While every team could use Soto, Boston knew they needed another dominant hitter in the lineup.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
