Takashi Saito to Red Sox

He signed a one-year, major-league contract, which foxsports.com’s Ken Rosenthal reports will carry a base salary of somewhere between $1.5 million and $2.5 million and could end up paying him more than $7 million if he maxes out on his incentives. Dodgers were open to re-signing him after they non-tendered him last month to avoid going to arbitration, but given that there were serious questions about the health of his right elbow, they weren’t about to give him anything close to this much money.
