After a unique draft where the Red Sox drafted some players with risk the only question was who will get contracts for this teams future. After a night of negotiations the Red Sox can finally reveal two players that signed.
"Even though there is still time before opening day we wanted to start getting players signed to contracts." said Owner/GM Richard Chase. "The discussions tonight went very easy and we feel the players getting the contracts and the length of the deals are no brainers."
The Rochester Red Sox are pleased to announce 1B Paul Goldschmidt has been signed to a 3yr contract. "Goldie is the power hitting 1B we wanted going into the draft and we were very happy to get him in round 3. We feel he will be a 30+ HR 100RBI guy for us and those numbers deserve this deal." said Chase.
The Rochester Redsox would also like to announce SP Josh Johnson has been inked to a new 2yr contract. "Many people wonder if Josh Johnson can stay healthy and take the ball 30 times a year. Though we have some concern as an organization we feel Josh has such great talent this deal is well worth it." said Chase.
As Opening Day approaches we fully expect to get more announcements on contract signings. Discussions are on going and word out of the organization has the Red Sox signing four more players before the deadline. More news to follow in the coming days.
