FLASH - 1B - Mike Napoli

avatar - flashAccording to Alex Speier of WEEI, the Red Sox will make a qualifying offer to Mike Napoli.

It'll be a one-year, $14.1 million offer, which Napoli will likely reject.  He hit .259/.360/.482 with 23 home runs and 92 RBI in 139 games this summer and should be able to find a multi-year deal on the open market this winter.  The Red Sox are known to want him back and would probably be open to a two- or even three-year deal.  Rejecting the qualifying offer ties Napoli to draft pick compensation
