Red Sox Sign Reliever Danny Coulombe to One-Year Deal
The Boston Red Sox signed free-agent left-handed reliever Danny Coulombe to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday. In a corresponding move, the Red Sox placed infielder Romy Gonzalez (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list after he had left-shoulder surgery. The 36-year-old Coulombe was originally a 25th-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2012 out of Texas Tech. He had a solid 2.30 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, a career-high two saves, 43 strikeouts, and 18 walks in 43 innings over 55 appearances (one start) last year with the Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers. Over his 11 seasons in the big leagues, Coulombe has gone 17-10 with a 3.35 ERA (3.62 FIP), 1.20 WHIP, five saves, and a 24% strikeout rate in 11 seasons with five different teams. At best, Coulombe is going to be a lefty specialist out of Boston's bullpen in 2026, and he won't have any real fantasy appeal.
