Red Sox sign rookie phenom Roman Anthony to an 8-year, $130 million contact
August 6, 2025
The Red Sox signed rookie phenom Roman Anthony to an eight-year, $130 million contract through 2033, spending some of the cash they saved by trading Rafael Devers away on a player they hope will be the centerpiece of the next generation of Boston stars. Anthony is batting .283 with two homers and 19 RBIs in 46 games since making his debut in June. The team is 32-16 since his call-up, including a 10-game winning streak heading into the All-Star break and seven straight wins when he signed his deal.
