According to reports, a National League team is pulling ahead of the other teams in the race to sign Boston RedSox free-agent infielder XanderBogaerts.
According to Jon Morosi, the Arizona D-backs are considered to be among the most serious landing spots for the four-time All-Star. According to Morosi, Mike Hazen was a top executive with the Red Sox whenaerts made his Major League Baseball debut.
The Boston Globe reported on Sunday that there are eight to 11 teams interested in the 30-year-old infielder. Abraham said that the Red Sox did not make a competitive offer to retain the player.
Geraldo Perdomo, who did not make an impact last season, is one of the reasons why the D-backs are looking for an upgrade. Nick was only able to play 17 games because of his injury. For the fifth year in a row, Arizona did not make the playoffs.
The Dodgers' free-agent infielder, Trea Turner, signed an 11-year, $300 million deal with the Phils, which all but eliminates them from signing Boston's infielder,aerts. Seager's 10-year, $325 million deal with the Texas Rangers made him the highest paid player in baseball.
Carlos Correa, Dansby Swanson, and Jose Iglesias are just a few of the top players remaining on the market.
