BOSTON, MA-The Boston Red Sox today agreed to terms with 10 players on one-year contracts for the 2019 season, thus avoiding salary arbitration: Matt Barnes, Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts, Jackie Bradley Jr., Brock Holt, Sandy Leon, Eduardo Rodriguez, Blake Swihart, Brandon Workman, and Steven Wright.
President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski made the announcement.
With today's agreements, the Red Sox have no remaining players eligible for salary arbitration.
Barnes, 28, averaged a career-high 14.01 strikeouts per 9.0 innings in 2018, striking out 96 batters in 61.2 innings spanning 62 appearances for the Red Sox. He also posted career bests in ERA (3.65), opponent batting average (.204), and opponent OPS (.624), as he surrendered zero home runs to left-handed batters while holding right-handers to a .191 batting average. Following the regular season, Barnes made a team-high 10 Postseason appearances-nine of which were scoreless-and went 2-0 with a 1.04 ERA (1 ER/8.2 IP). Selected by Boston in the first round of the 2011 June Draft, Barnes is one of only four American League pitchers to make at least 60 appearances and throw 60.0 or more innings in each of the last three seasons (2016-18). 
Betts, 26, earned the BBWAA's 2018 American League Most Valuable Player Award after leading the majors in batting average (.346) and slugging percentage (.640) with 42 doubles, five triples, 32 home runs, 80 RBI, 129 runs scored, and 30 stolen bases. He also earned Rawlings Gold Glove and Louisville Slugger Silver Slugger Awards, becoming the first AL player ever to earn both of those honors and an MVP award in the same season. Selected by Boston in the fifth round of the 2011 June Draft, Betts has been elected an All-Star Game starter and earned a Gold Glove Award in each of the last three seasons. In 644 major league games from 2014-18, he has hit .303 (789-for-2,606) with 110 home runs, 110 stolen bases, and an .888 OPS.

He led the majors with three grand slams and owned the fifth-highest OPS with runners in scoring position (1.130), batting .342 (51-for-149) in that scenario.

A two-time World Series champion (2013, '18), Bogaerts has hit .284 (832-for-2,931) with 74 home runs and 386 RBI in 759 career major league games, all with Boston.

In his final 76 games (beginning June 24), Bradley hit .282 (72-for-255) with an .851 OPS. Following the regular season, he posted a .360 on-base percentage with three home runs and 10 RBI in 14 Postseason games, earning MVP honors in the ALCS against the Houston Astros.

Holt accounted for both of Boston's pinch-hit home runs in 2018, becoming the first player in franchise history to record multiple go-ahead, pinch-hit homers in a single season. In Game 3 of the ALDS at Yankee Stadium, he became the first player in major league history to hit for the cycle in a Postseason game, securing the feat with a ninth-inning home run during a 16-1 win over New York.
