Coming off a disastrous 71-91 season, the Red Sox are looking to bounce back.With the new acquisition of GM Matt Caruso, things are looking up in Beantown. "I'm here to bring multiple championships to the city of Boston. As we all know this city is use to a winning culture and I intend to keep it that way" said Caruso.
This team has made some interesting signings thus far and I expect some big splashes as the free agent draft continues. One in particular is the signing of former O's slugger Chris Davis. The team signed Davis to a very friendly 3 year deal at right around 24 million dollars. The team is hoping to get the 2012 Davis that hit 53 home runs and drove in 138 runs.
