The Boston Red Sox have been tied to a number of rumors so far this offseason. The next name to add to the rumor mill is Lucas Duda, according to the New York Post’s Joel Sherman.
The interest definitely makes sense for the club. Duda is most definitely a power threat at first base, which is something that was almost completely missing from the team in 2017. The lack of power has been a focus all offseason, but Duda is a new option to remedy the issue.
With the team being tied to outfielders like Giancarlo Stanton and JD Martinez, Duda is a guy who could be signed alongside either superstar.
