The Boston Red Sox are staying busy with their roster moves this offseason. The new Chief Baseball Officer Chaim Bloom is making a lot of low costs, short contract deals, which is just what Boston needs. But some of the decisions rightfully allow for a bit of an eyebrow raise. Newly acquired RHP Chris Mazza is one of those signings for me.
What do we know?
The right-handed pitcher was acquired off waivers from the Mets. Mazza was drafted in 2011 by the Minnesota Twins. Since then he’s bounced around teams playing in the minor leagues for 8 seasons and he spent 1 season playing in a foreign league.
