Left-hander Ranger Surez and Boston Red Sox agree to $130 million, 5-year
contract, AP source says

Left-hander Ranger Surez and the Boston Red Sox agreed Wednesday to a $130
million, five-year contract, a person familiar with the negotiations told The
Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the agreement had
not been announced.
A 30-year-old who became an All-Star in 2024, Surez had spent his first eight
major league seasons with Philadelphia. He was 12-8 with a 3.20 ERA last year,
striking out 151 and walking 38 in 157 1/3 innings. He did not make his season
debut until May 4 because of lower back stiffness.
Surez is 53-37 with a 3.38 ERA in 119 starts and 68 relief appearances.
He joins a rotation projected to include left-hander Garrett Crochet,
right-handers Sonny Gray and Brayan Bello along with possibly right-hander
Tanner Houck.
He declined a $22,025,000 qualifying offer from the Phillies, who get an
additional draft pick after the fourth round this July as compensation.
