The Boston Red Sox finalized their $3 million, one-year contract with switch-hitting utilityman Marwin González on Wednesday, two weeks after reaching an agreement subject to a physical. Gonzalez can made an additional $1.15 million in performance bonuses for plate appearances: $125,000 each for 375, 400, 425, 450, 475 and 500, and $200,000 apiece for 525 and 550. To make room for him on the roster, the team designated right-hander Marcus Walden for assignment.
Alex Verdugo made most of his starts in right field for the Red Sox during 2020. But he’s expected to start in center field this year with Jackie Bradley Jr. likely headed to another club. Bradley remains a free agent.
Boston sports teams are preparing for a limited number of fans to return to games starting next month, and things are going to be different. Gov. Charlie Baker announced on Thursday that Fenway Park, TD Garden and Gillette Stadium can open up to 12% of capacity starting March 22 — allowing fans to see professional sporting events in person in the state for the first time in more than a year.
