The Red Sox have Houck, who is arbitration eligible for the first team this offseason, under team control for the next three seasons as the right-hander can\u2019t reach unrestricted free agency until 2028.<\/p>\n<p>But if it\u2019s up to Houck, he will be pitching for the Red Sox well beyond that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m always open to (extension) conversations. I love Boston. And in the fall, leaves changing, this is what I want. This is right up my alley,\u201d Houck recently told the Boston Herald\u2019s Gabrielle Starr. \u201cIf it happens, great, if it doesn\u2019t happen, no hard feelings by any means. Ultimately, teams got to do what\u2019s best for them and what they feel is best. If I\u2019m part of the plan, great. If not, while I have time here, I will continue to give everything I have for the city, in blood, sweat and tears.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t appear that an extension for Houck is imminent, but the Red Sox and the 28-year-old have had extension talks in the past. Houck said he discussed an extension with the team at the end of the 2022 season, a topic which reportedly was revisited during the 2024 campaign.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>It might be wise for Houck to try to ink a deal sooner rather than later, especially since he\u2019s coming off the best season of his MLB career. Houck was named to the American League All-Star team for the first time, but he faded over the second half of the season to end with a 9-10 record, 3.12 ERA and 1.142 WHIP in 30 starts.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>Houck saw the Red Sox hand contract extensions to Brayan Bello and Ceddanne Rafaela this past season, locking up two other homegrown assets for six and eight years, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>And perhaps Houck is next in line to get an extension done.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Boston Red Sox All-Star revealed this offseason that he wants to be a part of the franchise&#8217;s long-term plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":7617,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7616","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 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Red Sox All-Star &#039;Open&#039;
