A Dominant Record and Boston’s Big Bet
The Red Sox? They’re all in on Sasaki. They’ve been scouting him hard and are ready to spend big. Timing is everything, though—if he’s posted after January 15, Boston’s got a bigger international bonus pool, around $6.26 million, which gives them more money to play with.
But here’s the catch: because of MLB rules, Sasaki might only get a minor league deal at first. That could keep him in Japan a little longer, but he sounds ready. He posted a message on social media, thanking the Marines and saying he’s excited to take on new challenges.
Will Sasaki Follow in Ohtani’s Footsteps?
Bottom line: Sasaki’s got everyone talking, and fans can’t wait to see him in MLB.
