According to reports on Major League Baseball’s official website, the Red Sox have reached an agreement on an early contract extension with young pitcher Brayan Bello. The total contract value will be 6 years and 55 million US dollars, with a team option of 21 million US dollars in the seventh year. As a potential pitcher that has been rarely cultivated by the Red Sox farm in recent years, the team is optimistic that he can become the successor of “God’s right hand” Pedro Martinez.
The 24-year-old Bayo has just spent his second major league season. He scored 12 wins and 11 losses last season, with an ERA of 4.24. He was the highest on the team in terms of starts and innings. He was the Red Sox last season. A rare stabilizing force in an up-and-down starting rotation.
The Red Sox are optimistic about his growth in the new season, especially since their biggest signing in the offseason, Lucas Giolito, may be out for the entire season due to an elbow injury. The team needs Bayo to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the ace. Bayo said: “My first full season in the minor leagues, I was just trying to be a major league player, but obviously things have changed and I’m just continuing to work hard and improve as much as I can.”
Red Sox college president Martinez and Peyo, known as the “Right Hand of God,” are both Dominicans and pitchers of modest height. The two have a lot to talk about in private, and Peyo often asks each other for advice. In addition to incorporating the sinker into his weapon during the off-season, Beyo also made adjustments to the grip of his slider. This suggestion came from Martinez.
Bayo said: “He told me, don’t be afraid when you stand on the court, just be determined to throw the ball you want to throw.” Bayo has started 2 games in spring training and allowed 2 runs in 5 innings in total, but He only allowed one hit and struck out five times.
