The Red Sox formalized a one-year contract with outfielder Cody Ross for $3 million—which also includes performance bonuses. To clear space on the 40-man roster, Boston also released pitcher Scott Atchison.The 31-year-old Ross is a nice complementary player, but will be pressed in to pretty heavy service in the new Red Sox K-Mart Mode. Ross hit 14 home runs last year while hitting .240 with a .730 OPS.
