Red Sox's Rob Refsnyder: 2025 option exercised
The Red Sox exercised Refsnyder's $2.1 million club option for 2025.
Refsnyder was a useful platoon bat for the Red Sox again in 2024, slashing .283/.359/.471 with 11 homers over 93 games, which included a .941 OPS versus left-handed pitching. Boston currently projects to be very left-handed heavy again in 2025, so Refsnyder should be busy again as a short-side platoon outfielder.

Red Sox's Lucas Giolito: Exercises player option
Giolito (elbow) exercised his $19 million player option for 2025 on Thursday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Giolito was unlikely to receive anything close to a $19 million salary in free agency after missing all of 2024 due to an elbow procedure he underwent in March, so it's unsurprising to see him opt into another year with the Red Sox. The 30-year-old right-hander started a throwing program in early August, though it remains unclear if he'll be ready to go for the start of spring training.

Red Sox's Chris Murphy: Begins throwing program
Murphy (elbow) began a throwing program last week, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Murphy had Tommy John surgery in April and has finally been cleared to begin throwing again. The left-hander is sure to begin next season on the injured list -- perhaps the 60-day IL -- but will hope to contribute out of Boston's bullpen eventually.

Red Sox's Michael Fulmer: Throwing off mound
Fulmer (elbow) has begun throwing off a mound, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
Fulmer is coming up on the one-year anniversary of his UCL revision surgery and is tracking toward being ready to go for spring training. The right-hander inked a two-year, minor-league contract with the Red Sox in February and could open the 2025 season in the big-league bullpen, barring any setbacks with his recovery.

Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Undergoes shoulder surgery
Yoshida underwent surgery Oct. 3 to repair a labral tear in his right shoulder, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
The hope is that Yoshida will be ready in time for Opening Day, although it's not clear how limited, if at all, he will be during spring training. Yoshida slashed .280/.349/.415 with 10 home runs over 108 games for Boston this season as its full-time designated hitter.

Red Sox's Mickey Gasper: Remains hitless
Gasper went 0-for-2 with a walk in Sunday's 3-1 win over Tampa Bay.
Gasper batted eighth as Boston's designated hitter in Sunday's season finale, his first start since Aug. 29. He showcased his plate discipline in the fourth inning, working a seven-pitch walk after falling behind 0-2 to Ryan Pepiot. Gasper could find himself in the mix at catcher behind Connor Wong in 2025 with Danny Jansen set to hit free agency. The switch-hitting Gasper went 0-for-18 with four walks and one hit by pitch in his first taste of the majors this year, adding one run scored in 13 games.

Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Notches second save
Slaten allowed one hit and zero walks in a scoreless ninth inning to pick up his second save of the season in Sunday's season finale against Tampa Bay.
Slaten allowed a bunt single to Dylan Carlson to lead off the ninth but otherwise had no trouble wrapping things up. With incumbent closer Kenley Jansen on the injured list, Slaten was able to notch his first save since March 31. The 27-year-old Slaten had an encouraging rookie season out of the Red Sox bullpen, pitching to a 2.93 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 58:9 K:BB in 55.1 innings with six wins, 13 holds and two saves. The 37-year-old Jansen is set to become a free agent, so Slaten could find himself in the mix for saves next season.

Red Sox's Quinn Priester: Notches win in Red Sox debut
Priester (3-6) pitched five innings of one-run ball to pick up the win Sunday against the Rays, allowing four hits and one walk while striking out two.
Called up Sunday to make his Red Sox debut, Priester held his own to notch his third win of the season. The right-hander did not allow an extra-base hit, limiting the Rays to just four singles thanks to a robust 12:2 GB:FB. Acquired from Pittsburgh at the trade deadline, Priester struggled to a 5.40 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 42:12 K:BB in 38.1 innings (nine starts) for Triple-A Worcester. Sunday's start was a step in the right direction, but Priester likely needs more time to develop in the minor leagues before becoming a major-league asset. The 24-year-old owns an ugly 6.23 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 69:41 K:BB in 94.2 career MLB innings (15 starts).

Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: May have shoulder surgery
Yoshida may have right shoulder surgery soon, Carlos Yamazaki of Tokyo Sports Press reports.
Yoshida also expressed frustration about not getting enough at-bats and being a full-time designated hitter this year, per Chris Ryan of New Hampshire Today. The 31-year-old slashed .280/.349/.415 with 10 home runs, 45 runs, 56 RBI and two steals in 108 games this year. He will be UT-only next year in fantasy in the vast majority of formats after getting just one start in the outfield.
