红袜执行惠特洛克825万美元球队选项：布局投手留队
马萨诸塞州萨福克县波士顿市的波士顿红袜队11月1日宣布，执行右投手加勒特·惠特洛克为期一年、价值825万美元的球队选项，这名30岁的后援投手将继续留在波士顿。
惠特洛克上赛季担任终结者阿罗尔迪斯·查普曼之前的布局投手，出战54场，取得7胜2负，自责分率仅为1.72，在52又三分之一局中送出59次三振、仅9次保送。红袜队在季后赛出局后透露，惠特洛克在赛季最后一个月实际上是带着胫骨骨折坚持投球。
惠特洛克职业生涯六个赛季全部在红袜队度过，累计出战219场，其中23场先发，总战绩32胜16负，自责分率2.93。留住惠特洛克，意味着红袜队牛棚后段的核心组合得以保留。

Red Sox Exercise Garrett Whitlock's $8.25 Million Option
The Boston Red Sox of Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, announced on November 1 that they have exercised the one-year, $8.25 million club option on right-hander Garrett Whitlock, keeping the 30-year-old reliever in Boston.
Whitlock served last season as the setup man ahead of closer Aroldis Chapman, going 7-2 with a 1.72 ERA in 54 relief appearances, with 59 strikeouts and only nine walks in 52 1/3 innings. After the Red Sox were eliminated from the playoffs, it was revealed that Whitlock had pitched the final month with a fractured tibia.
Whitlock has spent all six of his major league seasons with Boston, appearing in 219 games (23 starts) with a 32-16 record and a 2.93 ERA. Exercising the option keeps a core piece of the Red Sox bullpen's late-inning group in place.
