NEW YORK (AP) — The Boston Red Sox signed right-handed reliever Garrett Whitlock to an $18.75 million, four-year deal covering 2023-26 that includes two club options and escalators that could increase the total to $44.5 million over six seasons. The agreement was announced by chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom before Boston played the finale of a three-game series against the rival New York Yankees. The Red Sox poached Whitlock from the Yankees in the winter meeting draft ahead of the 2021 season. A starter in the minors, the 25-year-old Whitlock moved to the bullpen and led all Boston pitchers with a 1.96 ERA over 73 1/3 innings.
