Question of the Day: Should the Red Sox add free agent Miguel Andujar?
"Here's a list of unsigned free agent outfielders who hit from the right side of the plate: By the way, that list is ordered by 2025 fWAR, and the only players who posted more than 0.0 wins last year were Andujar (1.1), Marte (0.7), and Pham (0.2). And, oh yeah, Marte and Pham are 37 and 38 years old, respectively."
"So the question of the day, is, I guess, do you have any interest in adding Miguel Andujar to the Red Sox roster? Honestly, he's not a bad little player. Only five players on the 2025 Red Sox posted an OBP of .350 or better, and four of them are no longer on the team (yikes). Of course that .352 mark was a huge outlier for Andujar, as his career OBP is just .315."
An ordered list of unsigned right-handed free agent outfielders uses 2025 fWAR. Only three players on that list posted positive fWAR: Andújar (1.1), Marte (0.7), and Pham (0.2). Marte and Pham are ages 37 and 38. The 2025 Red Sox had only five players with OBP of .350 or better, and four of those players are no longer on the roster. Andújar's .352 OBP in 2025 represents a notable outlier versus his career .315 OBP. Consideration of adding Miguel Andújar to the Red Sox roster raises questions about roster fit and replacement-level outfield depth.
