Red Sox lefty Matt Strahm open to signing as starter in free agency, would 'love' to come back to Boston

But the Red Sox have never used Strahm as a starter in 2022 -- and it doesn’t appear they’ve ever considered it. Yet Strahm, who started 16 games for the Padres back in 2019, thinks he can be part of some team’s rotation going forward. A pending free agent, the soon-to-be 31-year-old is fine signing as a reliever but also plans to market himself to teams as a potential rotation option.
