The Boston Red Sox will enter the 2021 season with a new center fielder after reports that Jackie Bradley Jr. is set to join the Milwaukee Brewers.
According to the Boston Globe's Julian McWilliams, Bradley plans to sign a two-year, $24 million contract with the Brewers that includes an opt-out clause after 2021.
Bradley wasn't expected to return to the Red Sox, so the team has been building their outfield depth this offseason to find someone who could replace him. The most-likely option to man center field is Alex Verdugo, who was acquired from the Los Angeles Dodgers in the Mookie Betts trade in February 2020.
