Comment on Red Sox sign 1B Moreland for 1 year

MORELAND By Jimmy Golen AP Sports Writer BOSTON – Free agent first baseman Mitch Moreland was already excited about joining the Boston Red Sox when the team made a move that made it even more appealing. One day after trading for five-time All-Start left-hander Chris Sale, the Red Sox agreed to terms with Moreland (Amory, MSU) on a one-year deal to share time with Hanley Ramirez at first base. “It just shows you that we’re in it and trying to go all out and trying to make that happen,” Moreland told reporters Thursday.
