Certainly not someone I had thought was even on the Red Sox radar this off-season.
It was announced today that they have signed Bartolo Colon to a minor league contract, so we will probably see him at some point this year depending how his shoulder works out.
This is a good signing by the Sox since it is for low low money, and if he is able to recover from his shoulder problems from last year, he can be a beast on the mound. It was only 3 years ago that he won 21 games and the American League Cy Young award.
He has an overall pretty good career, but has fallen off with injuries the last couple of years.
Let’s keep our fingers crossed, this could make our starting pitching lineup a complete monster.
