While the Red Sox would prefer to complete their agreed upon deal with Mike Napoli, they are also talking to Adam LaRoche, according to sources.

The discussions include two- and three-year possibilities, according to sources. LaRoche wants a three-year deal, which has been the main obstacle in talks about re-signing with the Nationals.

If Boston signs LaRoche, they could walk away from Napoli, who technically remains unsigned.

However, at this point the Red Sox view LaRoche more as a possible alternative to Napoli than as a primary target, sources say.
