The Boston Red Sox could be on the verge of another blockbuster free agent signing. Gerard Deulofeu Jersey . Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports the team has agreed to a five-year, $100 million deal with San Francisco Giants free agent third baseman Pablo Sandoval. Sandoval, 28, is fresh off of a third World Series in five seasons with the Giants. The 2012 World Series MVP, the Venezuelan had another impressive postseason this past October in the Giants seven-game win over the Kansas City Royals, batting .429 in the Fall Classic. In three World Series, Sandoval has a .426 average. Thought not as impressive as his playoff numbers, Sandoval, a two-time All-Star, hit .279 with 16 homers and 73 RBI over 157 regular season games in 2014. He also possessed the fifth-best range factor of any NL third baseman per nine innings. There is some confusion over whether or not the deal with the Red Sox is complete. Giants vice-president Bobby Evans told KBNR in San Francisco on Monday morning that he had spoken to Sandovals agent, his brother Michael, and hes vehemently denying the [Red Sox] reports. FOX Sports Ken Rosenthal reports that the San Diego Padres, another suitor of Sandovals, indicate that they have yet to be told that they are out on the player. While it does not happen in every case, its common practice for a free agent to inform potential suitors that he has chosen to sign with another club. If the Red Sox do, in fact, capture Sandoval, he will be the second high-profile free agent headed to Boston. Reports on Monday also have Los Angeles Dodgers free agent shortstop Hanley Ramirez returning to the Red Sox, the team that drafted him, on a five-year, $90 million pact. Ivan Rakitic Jersey . Tony Parker had 33 points and nine assists and San Antonio never trailed in a resounding 116-92 victory over Portland, bullying the younger Trail Blazers in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. Jeremy Mathieu Jersey . Head of clinic Josef Obrist tells the Austria Press Agency on Thursday that Morgenstern "is doing surprisingly well. ... He still has a memory gap but thats nothing unusual." Morgenstern has moved to a rehabilitation clinic in Klagenfurt for further recovery.BERLIN -- Bayern Munich routed Hannover 4-0 away to increase its Bundesliga lead to 19 points and extend its league record unbeaten run to 47 games on Sunday. Bastian Schweinsteiger made his first start after recovering from ankle surgery and the Germany midfielder had a hand in both his sides first half goals, as Bayern strolled to its 14th win in succession. Earlier, 10-man Werder Bremen held on for a 0-0 draw at Eintracht Frankfurt, a result that leaves both sides just three points off the relegation zone. Hannover made the better start and Bayern reserve goalkeeper Tom Starke, replacing the rested Manuel Neuer, had to be alert to deny Artjoms Rudnevs in the 15th minute when Szabolcs Huszti played the Latvian striker through. "It took us a while to get into it but once we scored it went very well," Bayern coach Pep Guardiola said. Bayern gave the home side a lesson in efficiency and scored with its first attack of note in the 25th when Schweinsteiger spotted Rafinha on the right and the Brazilian crossed for Thomas Mueller to head inside the right post. Schweinsteiger played a great ball over the Hannover defence for Thiago Alcantara to make it 2-0 with a confident finish nine minutes later. "It was great to play from the beginning, to get the practice back and play without any problems," Schweinsteiger said. "I still have to get into my rhythm. The foot feels good and I hope it stays that way." Hannover threatened briefly after the break, when Rudnevs fired over and Starke saved from Mame Biram Diouf before blocking Husztis effort. Mueller killed any hopes of a comeback with his second goal in the 59th after Mario Mandzukic laid the ball off with his heel. It was the Bayerrn wingers 10th strike of the season. Ousmane Dembele Jersey. Mandzukic celebrated his 100th Bundesliga appearance by meeting Rafinhas cross to complete the scoring in the 66th. Schweinsteiger went off shortly afterward, when he vented his frustration at not receiving the ball from substitute Arjen Robben after making a run. "When you get to a certain age you dont like to run as much," Schweinsteiger joked. "I know what Arjen is like." Bayern can wrap up the title in record time with closest challengers Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund losing on Saturday. Fourth-placed Schalke also slipped up by drawing on Friday. No other side has had such an advantage after 22 games in 51 seasons of the Bundesliga. Bayern can theoretically seal the title on March 15. "I look at the table but in the end its only important what we do," Guardiola said. Frankfurt dominated its game Sunday but failed to make the most of its numerical advantage after Felix Kroos was sent off with his second yellow card in the 34th minute. "Were not at all happy with the point," Frankfurt coach Armin Veh said. "We were the better team even before the sending off." Joselu should have scored in the ninth but was thwarted in a one-on-one by Bremen goalkeeper Raphael Wolf. Frankfurt attacking midfielder Alexander Meier grazed the outside of the right post with a free kick in the 29th, shot wide from a promising position in the 78th, and then headed the best chance against the other post with two minutes remaining. "This little victory for morale can help us," Bremen coach Robin Dutt said. "We dont yet know what the point is good for but it will be good for something." Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
