As one of the top names on the free-agent market this offseason, Josh Hamilton is garnering attention from plenty of suitors looking to insert his powerful bat into their lineup.
One organization that looks to have the tools necessary to pull of such a move is the Boston Red Sox, and according to Jon Heyman of CBSsports.com, they do appear to be players in the Hamilton sweepstakes.
While such a move would make sense in many ways, the Red Sox have been quick to point out that the whirlwind of speculation about the connection might be a bit overblown and that nothing is in any way imminent (h/t Rob Bradford, WEEI.com).
Should Hamilton find his way, he’ll be set up for big things as he moves into the next phase of his career, and Fenway would provide the perfect atmosphere for him to further his chances of creating a lasting legacy.
