Report: Red Sox DFA Bradley Jr.
Published
Jackie Bradley Jr.'s second stint with the Boston Red Sox appears at its end.
The Boston Globe's Julian McWilliams reports the veteran outfielder has been designated for assignment.
Bradley, 32, has struggled at the plate this season. In 91 games, Bradley was batting .210 with three home runs, 29 runs batted in and an OPS of .578.
A native of Richmond, VA, Bradley spent the first eight years of his career with the Red Sox before signing a two-year deal with the Milwaukee Brewers ahead of the 2021 season. He was traded back to the Red Sox this past offseason in exchange for outfielder Hunter Renfroe.
Bradley was a member of the Red Sox's 2018 World Series-winning team.
Bradley's contract has a mutual option for 2023 with an $8 million buyout.
