Boston, MA – In a shocking move, left-handed pitcher Patrick Sandoval has accepted a two-year deal with the Boston Red Sox, despite reportedly receiving more lucrative offers from other teams.

“I’m thrilled to be joining the Red Sox organization,” Sandoval said in a statement. “While the financial terms of the deal may not have been the most lucrative, I believe that the opportunity to compete for a championship and be part of such an iconic franchise was too good to pass up.”

However, Red Sox General Manager Brian O’Halloran said that the team is thrilled to have Sandoval on board, and believes that he will be a key contributor to the team’s success in the years to come.
“We’re ecstatic to have Patrick join our organization,” O’Halloran said. “He’s a talented young pitcher with a lot of upside, and we believe that he’ll be a great fit for our team.”
Sandoval is expected to join the Red Sox for spring training in February, and will likely compete for a spot in the team’s starting rotation.
