The Boston Red Sox on Thursday have released outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr.
Bradley, 32, rejoined the Red Sox after the team acquired the outfielder and two minor leaguers in a December 2021 trade with the Milwaukee Brewers, giving up slugger Hunter Renfroe.
He was hitting .210 with 3 home runs and 29 RBIs in 92 games for the Red Sox while making $9.5 million this season.
Bradley, who has a career .228 batting average, was a mainstay for Boston during his first stint with the Red Sox from 2013 to 2020, earning an All-Star nod in 2016 and MVP honors during the 2018 American League Championship Series. He had 62 outfield assists while making 769 starts for the Red Sox.
