The New York Yankees made another big move on Friday.

New York, like the Boston Red Sox, had to go to Plan B after missing out on superstar slugger Juan Soto. The Yankees immediately traded for former Atlanta Braves All-Star Max Fried in a massive $218 million deal. Boston followed New York’s big move shortly thereafter and acquired All-Star Garrett Crochet from the Chicago White Sox.

Now the Yankees have bolstered their bullpen by signing two-time All-Star Devin Williams from the Milwaukee Brewers, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

“Breaking: The New York Yankees are finalizing a deal to acquire closer Devin Williams from the Milwaukee Brewers, sources tell ESPN,” Passan said.

Could the Red Sox follow suit with a big move of their own to expand the bullpen? Former Boston closer Kenley Jansen is a free agent and it would be somewhat surprising if the two teams got back together.

If the Red Sox go in a different direction, they could make a big splash by signing fellow All-Star Tanner Scott. He was arguably the most dominant reliever in baseball in 2024. He started the season with the Miami Marlins and was eventually traded to the San Diego Padres.

Overall, he finished the season with a 1.75 ERA in 72 appearances. He is a free agent and is expected to sign a four-year, $65 million contract this offseason. Could it be Boston? The Yankees have their new closer, should Boston add one of their own?
