The Boston Red Sox and right-handed relief pitcher Chris Martin agreed to a two-year, $17.5 million contract Friday, pending a physical, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.
The 36-year-old Martin dominated for the Los Angeles Dodgers after the Chicago Cubs dealt him prior to the 2022 trade deadline in August.
He posted a 1.46 ERA and 0.53 WHIP while striking out 34 batters in 24.2 innings over 26 appearances for the National League West winners.
Last year was Martin's seventh MLB season. The veteran has pitched for the Colorado Rockies, New York Yankees, Texas Rangers, Atlanta Braves, Cubs and Dodgers.
