Braves Pitcher From 2021 Championship Roster Signs With Red Sox

Left-handed starter Sean Newcomb is going home -- not to his first MLB home, but his childhood home -- to continue his baseball career.

MassLive's Chris Cotillo reported Friday morning that the Boston Red Sox signed Newcomb to a minor-league deal for the 2025 season. Newcomb was born and raised in Massachusetts and played college baseball at the University of Hartford.
