The Boston Red Sox, which announced it would reduce the team's total annual salary. Will "All Star Outfielder" Mookie Betts, end up leaving the team this winter?
NBC Sports Boston reported on Thursday that Betts will leave the team this winter, and that's what his teammates think.
This means a transfer through the trade. Betts still have one more season to qualify for the FA.
In addition, the U.S. CBS Sports quoted the Boston president as saying, "It's hard to protect Betts and J.D. Martinez, but we'll come up with a plan."
Official acknowledgement of the difficulty of keeping Betts and Martinez. Boston has already said it will keep its luxury tax cap for the upcoming 2020 season.
Under these circumstances, it is difficult to handle Betts' annual salary, which is expected to exceed $20 million. It is a more difficult situation to give a long-term contract
Betts is a super-high-class outfielder everyone wants. He will qualify for the FA after the upcoming 2020 season. You need a super-special contract to catch Betts.
If Betts is in the trade market after this season, it is expected to gain huge popularity even if he has one year to qualify for the FA.
Betts batted .295 with 29 home runs, 80 RBIs and 135 RBIs and 176 hits in 150 games this season, and had a .391 OPS 0.915 on-base percentage.
