The Boston Red Sox have an opening at either first base or designated hitter and a desperate need to add more pop to the lineup. While most fans are enamored with the flashy free agent and trade targets there are low-cost options who could fill those needs without breaking the bank.
One of those options is Matt Adams, who became eligible for free agency when the Atlanta Braves didn’t offer him a 2018 contract by Friday night’s deadline. Adams would have been arbitration eligible but he’s now free to negotiate a new deal with any team.
