Boston Red Sox slugger J.D. Martinez may be headed toward free agency following the 2019 season.
Rob Bradford of WEEI cited a source who said the American League East team has not discussed reworking Martinez's contract to this point. While the designated hitter is not set for unrestricted free agency until 2023, Bradford explained he has an opt-out after the 2019 season and another following the 2020 campaign.
"This guy is some kind of hitter," agent Scott Boras said while hinting his client could hit free agency, per Bradford.
