Colon to sign with Red Sox


After the Boston Red Sox announced the contract extension of manager Terry Francona, the Sox made another, even surprising, annoucement.


The Boston Red Sox announced that they have signed former AL Cy Young Award winner, and former Angel, Bartolo Colon to a minor league contract.


A minor league contract is minimal risk to the Red Sox. If he shows he's healthy and ready to go, then he adds to an already strong pitching rotation. If not, they release him towards the end of spring training and they move on.
