It's no surprise the Red Sox are aggressively trying to retain the 31-year-old after originally signing him to a three-year deal with a $40 million average annual value just last offseason.

His first year in Boston was a resounding success as he hit .273 with 18 home runs and an .822 OPS in 114 games.
