Max Scherzer. He's 30 years old and had a 2014 record of 18-5 with a 3.15 ERA

 

 

Shields and Scherzer would make the most sense because he is a free agent and the Red Sox won't have to trade any players to sign him.

Hamels and Cueto are probably better pitchers but to get them would involve having to trade for them.
