Red Sox Clear Roster Spot by Releasing Player With Shohei Ohtani’s Number – A Strategic Move Before $500 Million Sweepstakes?

An important agreement was signed on Friday. The Boston Red Sox and Seattle Mariners saw some movement in a seemingly static winter market.

As some teams seemed to sit back, the Red Sox strategically traded outfielder Luis Urias (26) to the Mariners.

This may seem like a normal move, but some insiders and fans think otherwise. They suspect Boston will try to sign top Japanese free agent Shohei Ohtani this offseason.

The 26-year-old team athlete set a personal best this year.

Luis Urias appeared in 32 games for Beantown, posting a .225 batting average, 20 hits, 13 RBI and 2 home runs.

However, he was unable to play in this game due to a hamstring injury earlier this season. Will his business set the stage for Showtime?

Although the trade did not involve the 29-year-old Japanese pitcher, fans still found the reference.

Ohtani’s LA Angels uniform number and Urias’ Boston Red Sox uniform number were 17.

Therefore, trading Urias would free up the number 17 jersey, which fans believe is a strong signal that Ohtani will be pursued.

However, since the agency has not taken any action on the rumor, it is purely speculation.

Moreover, the search will not be easy as Octani expects to exceed the contract value of $500 million.

Moreover, a New York Post reporter still believes the player will stay in Los Angeles. Definitely not the Angels, but the Dodgers.

However, the San Francisco Giants, New York Mets, San Diego Padres and New York Yankees, all of whom Showtime believes have DH ability, will be in the running.

Presentation issues can be resolved later. After all, landing a baseball unicorn isn’t easy.
