Friday was payday for a bunch of arbitration-eligible Boston Red Sox.
The Red Sox recently came to terms with pitchers Carson Smith and Steven Wright earlier in the week, and the club agreed to new contracts with a handful of players before Friday’s 1 p.m. ET deadline.
Boston came to term with nine arbitration-eligible players. The only player the club failed to agree to terms with was outfielder Mookie Betts.
Here are the latest reported agreements reached Friday (all one-year contracts):
