The Boston Red Sox will owe Jordan Hicks $4 million in 2027 despite his trade to the Chicago White Sox. This obligation stems from a trade earlier this year in which the Red Sox dealt Hicks to Chicago after a disappointing performance. Boston committed $8 million in cash as part of that transaction, divided equally between 2026 and 2027. Hicks contributed to the White Sox's playoff appearance despite a rough 2025 season with the Red Sox, where he posted an 8.20 ERA in 21 games. His contract runs through 2027, and he is expected to be paid the final installment while pitching for Chicago.
