The Boston Red Sox are looking for bullpen help this Major League Baseball offseason and reportedly still have their eyes on David Robertson.
The Red Sox need to fill some voids after Joe Kelly agreed to sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers and with Craig Kimbrel’s future in Boston up in the air. Robertson has been linked to the Red Sox after spending last year with the New York Yankees. The right-hander certainly is one of the premier relievers on the market, alongside Kimbrel and Adam Ottavino, among others.
While it’s been rumored Boston is taking the “wait and see” approach with Kimbrel before adding bullpen help, MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reported, citing sources, the team still is interested in Robertson.
According to sources, the Red Sox are still in the mix for free-agent reliever David Robertson. There’s mutual interest, though several teams remain in contention for the RHP.
