While the Red Sox have reportedly added multiple bullpen arms on Sunday, they say goodbye to another.
Reliever Adam Ottavino has agreed to a deal with the Mets, the New York Post’s Joel Sherman reported Sunday, returning the Brooklyn native back to New York. The deal is worth $4 million with $1 million in performance bonuses, Sherman added.
Ottavino, 36, was traded to the Red Sox from the Yankees prior to the 2021 season with one year left on his contract. Ottavino ended up being the Red Sox’ most-used reliever in 2021, appearing in 69 games.
