Red Sox eyeing Randy Arozarena in upcoming free agency

Summary

The Boston Red Sox have reportedly set their sights on Mariners outfielder Randy Arozarena ahead of free agency. Arozarena, a three-time All-Star and 2021 AL Rookie of the Year, is having a career year and is expected to command a significant contract. Reports suggest the Mariners may not engage in a bidding war to retain him, as they face the prospect of losing their top offensive talent. Arozarena could provide a much-needed power boost to the Red Sox lineup, which has lacked strong batting support outside of Willson Contreras. The team has various outfield options, and Arozarena's fit in Fenway Park appears promising, though changes to the roster may be necessary to accommodate him.
