Red Sox Sign Veteran Reliever Danny Coulombe to One-Year Deal

The Boston Red Sox have signed 36-year-old left-handed reliever Danny Coulombe to a one-year, $1 million contract. Coulombe, who posted a 1.16 ERA in 31 innings with the Twins in 2025 before a brief stint with the Rangers, is valued for his high spin rates and ability to limit hard contact. While he addresses a need for left-handed middle relief, his age and extensive injury history involving his bicep, elbow, forearm, shoulder, and hips remain significant concerns for the team.
