Red Sox's Reese McGuire: Avoids arbitration with Boston

McGuire signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Red Sox on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

McGuire was the Red Sox's backup catcher for the 2023 season. He posted a modest .668 OPS across 202 plate appearances and figures to serve in the same role while complementing Connor Wong in 2024.
