Buster Olney has praised the Boston Red Sox for their offseason moves, ranking them as the second most improved team in MLB, particularly due to their strengthened pitching rotation. Despite adding key players like Garrett Crochet and Walker Buehler, some analysts note a lack of offensive improvements, raising concerns about the team's lineup depth. Although they have upgraded their pitching, the Red Sox have faced criticism regarding player trades and the unchanged status of their bullpen, suggesting mixed feelings surrounding their overall offseason strategy.
While he's not wrong, Olney fails to see the Sox's improvement for what it is: heavily focused on its pitching and not on its lineup.
Boston won the Garrett Crochet sweepstakes, making a deal with the Chicago White Sox for the power lefty, and then signed free agent Walker Buehler.
