Agent: Encarnacion 'loves Boston' http://www.thescore.com/news/1149584 Free agency is officially open, and one of the biggest names available is Edwi n Encarnacion, who's reportedly seeking a five-year, $125-million deal. After another strong season with Toronto, Encarnacion's agent, Paul Kinzler, e xpects the slugger to generate interest from "10 or 11" teams, one of which co uld be the Boston Red Sox. In April,David Ortiz?- who retired last month after 14 years in Boston - call ed the 33-year-old Encarnacion a "perfect replacement" for next season - a sce nario that's apparently quite alluring. "It definitely intrigued him," Kinzer said at the general managers' meeting, a ccording to Bob Bradford of WEEI.com. "He and David are close, and that meant a lot to him when David did that." According to Kinzler, Encarnacion also adores the city and enjoys hitting at F enway Park. "He loves Boston," the agent said. "You look at his highlights from last year, I think five of his home runs were hit there. He loves to hit there. The atmo sphere … That's always one of his favorite road games." Encarnacion has indeed enjoyed great success at Fenway during his career.

"I'm not sure if we're going to do it internally with a lot of the people we h ave or go outside the organization," Dombrowski told reporters, according to E SPN's Jerry Crasnick. "We know we can never replace (Ortiz's) presence. But we have a lot of guys who can play different positions. We have young guys comin g that we like a great deal, so we'll just kind of have to wait to see what ha ppens there. "There are a lot of different factors. One is affordability, but not only that . How long do you want to tie somebody up for that position when we have a lot of young players coming? That's a very important part of it." Encarnacion finished 2016 with 42 home runs, and tied Ortiz for the American L eague lead in RBIs with 127. - 支持簽下EE 無縫接軌老爹的打者今年就只有他了 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 39.12.199.67 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/RedSox/M.1478620710.A.3D5.html
