Red Sox owe Roman Anthony $123 million after postseason injury

Summary

The Boston Red Sox still owe Roman Anthony $123 million following an injury that cut short his postseason participation. Anthony’s 2026 season ended after just two at-bats in the American League Wild Card series, where he struck out twice before being removed from the roster. This latest setback follows a season where he missed 107 games due to injuries, including a torn ligament in his right hand. The Red Sox signed Anthony to an eight-year extension in August 2025, with escalators potentially pushing the contract's value to $230 million. His injury history raises concerns about his availability for the 2027 season.
