‘I know I need to keep improving’: Brayan Bello isn’t ready to settle following extension with Red Sox

Brayan Bello has locked up his first big contract of his MLB career. Now, he’s seeking bigger goals for himself.

The Red Sox pitcher got to ring in his new six-year, $55 million contract in his native Dominican Republic as the team’s taking part in the Dominican Series this weekend. As spring training continues, Bello acknowledged that his goals this spring have to be larger than the ones he set for himself last spring, when he was preparing for his first full big league season.

“To establish yourself in an organization like this, you have to establish goals,” Bello told reporters through team translator Carlos Villoria Benítez.
