The Red Sox signed seven of their arbitration-eligible players on Friday, agreeing to one-year contracts with center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury and six relief pitchers.

Ellsbury received $9 million in his final year of arbitration eligibility, the team announced on its website, a raise of $950,000. Ellsbury played in 74 games last season, hitting .271 with four home runs and 14 stolen bases.
