Jacoby Ellsbury, who just turned 30, will be a free agent this off season. He relies on his speed to be the number one tool of his game. He has been a great player for the Red Sox over the past seven seasons but will someone want to take the risk of him breaking down late in a contract? The Red Sox could really use him back in center field next season, but do they want to take that risk? In the seven seasons as a Red Sox he only played 130 games four times. He had a very good season this year and that could help his chances in free agency. Look for Ellsbury to get a four or five year deal worth about $90 Million.
