What To Know About Roman Anthony Deal
Roman Anthony has signed an 8 year extension worth $130 million, including a club option in 2034. By that time, current Little Leaguers will be featured in MLB.
The catch is Marcelo Meyer, Ceddanne Rafaela, Garrett Crochet, and Kristian Campbell are mainstays. They have signed early long- term extensions, too, and are set to undergo the next phase of this franchise under the Fenway Sports Group (FSG).
Fans wondered why the Red Sox did not test the waters at the deadline but rest assured they got their man in Anthony who has hit 2 HR, .283 AVG and an .828 OPS.
The question I have is water dominance meaning is Anthony determined to swim and beat Cam Smith, Jacob Wilson, and Nick Kurtz in the AL Rookie of the Year Race?
The Boston Red Sox remain 64-51 in the AL East behind Toronto. You could argue Bo Bichette has returned to his normal scary self as a former top prospect, too. This all remains, in doubt.

Kyle Schwarber Asked About Joining Hometown Team in FA
When asked about joining his hometown Cincinnati youth in free agency by Scott Lauber of the Inquirer, Kyle Schwarber candidly said, “Being able to play for your childhood team is something that I think it’d be awesome.”
Awesome, you might add Lauber decided to ask, “Being a baseball fan and growing up and watching Cincinnati baseball for your whole youth, that’s how fall in love with baseball, I would draw your attention, right?”
The Reds are in the thick of a Wild Card race with first year manager Terry Francona leading a 58-54 record. Cincinnati has pitching prospects Chase Burns and Rhett Lowder called up and you could argue the best home run leader of his generation compared to Babe Ruth would make a swing for the fences in Great American Ball Park.
Citizens Bank Park might become more dwindling as days countdown. We will never know an answer unless the Philadelphia Phillies, play ball to the drum of the history of Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt, Bryce Harper, and Kyle Schwarber.
