Clay Buchholoz will pitch this year with the security of knowing that he will be in a Red Sox uniform for at least 4 more years. Buchholz & the Sox agreed to a $30 million, 4-year deal with club options for 2 more years.
Buchholz showed that he belongs with the big club last year by posting one of the league's best ERA's to go along with 17 wins. He has been slow out of the gate this April, but like Beckett, the Sox expect that to change.
With J.D. Drew, Mike Cameron & Marco Scutaro going off the books next year the Sox are re-positioning their assets to tied up their younger talent. I think it's a good signing.
