One day after the Red Sox and third baseman Rafael Devers agreed to a one-year deal to avoid salary arbitration, the two parties have now reportedly agreed upon an 11-year, $331 million deal with Boston, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan.
The third baseman’s deal is now the sixth largest in MLB history in terms of total value. He will earn about $30.09 million per year, which would equate to the 21st-highest annual value in history, per The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal.
However, Passan noted that the deal is not complete or official yet since the physical process has not begun.
