Moreland signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the Red Sox on Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will remain in Boston where he finished his third season with the club hitting .252/.328/.507 with 19 home runs and 58 RBI in 335 plate appearances throughout 2019. The left-handed hitting first baseman only started eight contests against southpaws, compared to 68 against righties. Michael Chavis will likely continue to accompany Moreland in a platoon role to begin the season. The deal includes a salary of $2.5 million in 2020 with a $3 million club option or a $500,000 buyout for 2021. Denyi Reyes was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
