Its finally happened. Boston signed there first FA of the 2026 off season.

The Red Sox traded Hunter Dobbins Yhoiker Fajardo and Blake Aita for Wilson Contreras and cash.

That should have said “after coming back from Tommy John. “

Boston trades their no. 7 prospect Luis Perales to Washington for Washington’s no. 11th prospect Jake Bennett.
Bennett pitched in A+ and AA last season going a combine 2-5 with a 2.27 ERA. Perales pitched in AA and AAA last season going 0-0 with a 7.71 ERA before getting Tommy John.

A look at the Rule 5 draft from the Red Sox Organization.
Boston lost a couple of really good arms in Paez and Brand but hopefully they pulled some magic with Ryan Watson. Looks like a decent bullpen arm. But time will tell.

With the addition of Johan Oviedo and Tyler Samaniego the Red Sox had to make room on the 40 man roster. Looks like Cooper Criswell was the odd man out as the DFAd him minutes after announcing the trade with Pittsburgh.

The Red Sox made another trade Jhostynxon Garcia and RHP Jesus Travieso (Single A) have been traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates for RHP Johan Oviedo and minor leaguers C Adonis Guzman (Single A) and LHP Tyler Samaniego (AA) but protected from the rule 5 draft by Pittsburgh on November 18th.

The #RedSox are reportedly willing to pay the luxury tax in 2026, but the second-tier ($264MM) penalty threshold may be a bridge too far:
