The official Major League website MLB.com reported on the 21st (Korea time) 'Sandoval, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery, signed a two-year contract with Boston'
MLB.com said 'Boston has agreed to a two-year, $18.25 million (W26 billion) contract with Sandoval in anticipation of part of the 2025 season and full-time in 2026' Boston has yet to make an official announcement.
Sandoval had a one-sided Tommy John surgery in June this year, which is a large elbow joint surgery. With the recent development of medical technology and rehabilitation techniques, the time it takes to return is decreasing, but at least a year is needed. Sandoval is still uncertain in the first half of the 2025 season. Boston nevertheless caught Sandoval.
MLB.com wrote 'Sandoval was out for the season after pitching on June 21. Immediately afterwards, he had Tommy John surgery. He pointed out that he will miss at least a few months in the 2025 season.
MLB.com wrote 'Sandoval is a 28-year-old pitcher from California. After being drafted by the Houston Astros in the 11th round of the 2015 draft, he made his debut with his hometown team, the Los Angeles Angels. Sandoval transferred to the Angels through a trade ahead of the 2019 season.
Sandoval played six seasons in the Angels alone, going 19-45 with a 4.01 ERA.
MLB.com added 'Sandoval was not a big prospect at the time of the trade. However, over time, Sandoval continued to keep the rotation and bloomed. From 2021 to 2023, he played as the second starter after Shohei Ohtani. During this period, Sandoval had an ERA of 3.53'
Sandoval uses changeups and sliders as crystal balls to have strikeouts.
