NEW YORK (AP) -Boston Red Sox officials are in Texas for talks with agent Scott Boras in an attempt to reach an agreement with free-agent first baseman Mark Teixeira.
Red Sox owner John Henry and general manager Theo Epstein made the trip, an official with another team said Thursday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because his team wasn’t involved in the talks but had knowledge of them.
The Los Angeles Angels, who obtained Teixeira from the Atlanta Braves in July, said last week they made an eight-year offer.
Red Sox president Larry Lucchino declined comment.
