Sox Sign Another Arm

Vincente Padilla is the newest Red Sox to have a chance at the 5th rotation spot. Sox signed Padilla to a $1.5 million contract. The 34-year old veteran was severely limited last year due to a neck injury.

The Red Sox website says Padilla has been pitching in winter ball to let scouts know that he has recovered from his injury. If healthy, Padilla is a veteran of 4 different teams that can bring his experience of over 200 starts to the mound. He will compete against the likes of Silva, Cook, Aceves & others for the final rotation job.

Keep stockpiling the arms, Ben.
