Taylor has played every position except for pitcher, catcher, and first base during his eight-year MLB career. The 31-year-old slashed .254/.344/.438 with 20 home runs and 73 RBI during the 2021 season and earned his first All-Star nod.

The Red Sox have been sticking to short-term deals with starting pitchers so far this offseason. They announced the signing of right-hander Michael Wacha on Monday and reportedly agreed to a deal with southpaw James Paxton on Wednesday.
