Go big or go home. That’s the mentality Dave Dombrowski often takes to the negotiating table. The Boston Red Sox president of baseball operations has never been shy about making a deal. While the club has identified the bullpen as an area in need of an upgrade, Dombrowski isn’t content with adding depth. He wants a difference maker.
ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick reports that the Red Sox are aiming high in their search of the relief market. The goal is to upgrade on the collection of setup men they currently have rather than complement them.
“They’re not just looking to get an eighth-inning reliever” an evaluator for a competing club told Crasnick.
