Boston Red sox have reportedly Agreed terms on a  deal $55.5 million with the San Francisco Giants proceeding to…

Some of the best unsigned free agents are finally beginning to sign as Opening Day approaches.

Blake Snell, the two-time Cy Young Award winner, was the top pitcher available in free agency and allegedly reached an agreement on Monday night to sign with the San Francisco Giants.

Former Boston Red Sox All-Star slugger J.D. Martinez is another outstanding free agent still on the market.

The six-time All-Star played for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2023, where he hit 33 home runs and drove in 103 runs, but he is still searching for his next chance.

One team that reportedly is showing interest in the star slugger is the Los Angeles Angels, according to the New York Post’s Jon Heyman.

“(Jordan Montgomery), an October hero who proved better than the (New York Yankees) thought, would seem like another possibility,” Heyman said. “But he has been linked more closely to the (Texas Rangers), Red Sox, (Chicago Cubs), and others.

“At this point, a less expensive star like Martinez might seem more possible. Word is the Angels like him, and the feeling is mutual. But the Angels may prefer to keep the (designated hitter) spot open for (Mike Trout) and Anthony Rendon, their other veteran name who’s much more injury-prone than Trout.”

Martinez, who will be 36 years old when the 2024 season begins, probably won’t sign a big contract at this time. It would make sense for Los Angeles to sign the former Red Sox great because they have a lot of money to spend.
