Don't get too excited, but multiple sources indicate that the Red Sox are among
ten teams that have contacted the Miami Marlins about left-hand hitting OF
Christian Yelich. The 26-year-old is reportedly upset that
Derek Jeter has traded away the core of the team (including a few of his close friends). So, now, he wants out of
MarlinVille as well. Over his five-year career, Yelich is a .290 hitter, with 59 HRs and an OPS of .800. Thanks to the depletion of the Red Sox farm system over the last two years (which has, in fairness, netted us
Craig Kimbrel and
Chris Sale), we may not have the talent to being back a Yelich. Stay tuned.
