| 4/01/25 | Ex-Red Sox Alex Verdugo Could Benefit From MLB's Latest PED Suspension. The offseason was a challenging time for former Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo, but the 28-year-old's patience could come rewarded in 2025.

| 3/24/25 | Yankees were 'concerned' by former player's off-field issues, report says. It took until seven days before the start of stateside Opening Day for outfielder Alex Verdugo to land with a new organization — and, even at that, he'll start in Triple-A. Verdugo will make $1.5 million with the Atlanta Braves on a one-year deal after a season with the New York Yankees in which he started through the postseason, played in 149 regular-season games and earned $8.7 million.

| 3/22/25 | MLB rumors: Alex Verdugo accused of 'misplaying free agency' by insider. One week before their season opener against the San Diego Padres, the Atlanta Braves signed Alex Verdugo to a one-year, $1.5 million contract. Although the veteran outfielder was coming off the worst season of his career in 2024, his poor showing in free agency surprised many observers. Throughout his career Verdugo has been, for the most part, a solid contact hitter who offers positional versatility in the outfield. “Alex Verdugo scarcely misplayed a ball in left field for the Yankees last year… But boy did he ever misplay free agency,” Jon Heyman of the New York Post wrote, via si.com.

| 3/19/25 | Ex-MLB star complains about injustice for two ex-Yankees. As spring training draws close to an end, a couple of players from the 2024 Yankees squad remain free agents. Both outfielder Alex Verdugo and first baseman Anthony Rizzo have yet to land with a new team. Former Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer thinks there's a problem with that. “How we living in a world where the everyday LF and 1B for the New York Yankees World Series team don't have jobs after the first MLB game of the season,” Hosmer wrote on X on Tuesday.

| 3/18/25 | Former New York Yankees star Alex Verdugo yet to receive major league offer: Report. Prominent outfielder Alex Verdugo, who helped the New York Yankees to an AL pennant during the last season, spent the winter hunting for a new job after becoming a free agent in November. As Verdugo continues to linger on the free agent market, it seems like his search for the new team will stretch into this season. Verdugo is yet to receive an MLB offer despite being a free agent for months now, a source close to the matter told Brendan Kuty of The Athletic.

| 3/18/25 | Aaron Judge 'Surprised' That Ex-Yankees, Red Sox Outfielder Remains Unsigned. A former Boston Red Sox outfielder who is widely considered a starting outfielder has shockingly remained unsigned this offseason. The Athletic's Brendan Kuty released a piece on Tuesday reacting to a surprising reality for Alex Verdugo — he doesn't have a team to play for with less than two weeks to go until the start of the 2025 regular season. Verdugo played for the Red Sox between 2020 and 2023 before joining the New York Yankees last season. The Yankees moved on from him after the season in favor of giving Jasson Domínguez a starting opportunity in the outfield, but that doesn't mean Verdugo isn't still a valuable asset for 29 other teams.

| 3/18/25 | MLB Rumors: Ex-Red Sox Facing Harsh Reality As Opening Day Nears. The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Chicago Cubs began a new MLB season in Japan on Tuesday, but a former Boston Red Sox outfielder remains unemployed. Alex Verdugo's New York Yankees tenure flamed out with a disappointing World Series run. The Bronx Bombers didn't re-sign the 28-year-old since they wanted to allow their top prospect Jasson Domínguez a chance to earn a roster spot. Verdugo isn't the greatest outfielder, but he's proven to be serviceable at best. That doesn't seem to be enough for MLB teams as, according to The Athletic's Brendan Kuty , Verdugo “hasn't received a single major-league offer since becoming a free agent.” The eight-year veteran made $8.7 million last season, so it's possible Source: https://nesn.com/2025/03/mlb-rumors-ex-red-sox-fac... |

By Henry Blickenstaff | Share on Facebook Share on X Copy Article World Series - Los Angeles Dodgers v New York Yankees - Game 5 | Jim McIsaac/GettyImages Share on Facebook Share on X Share on Reddit Copy Article Alex Verdugo is coming off of a rather forgettable season with the Yankees.
