The Boston Red Sox have aggressively pursued new talent this offseason after three years of missing the playoffs. Major moves include trading for pitcher Garrett Crochet, signing Walker Buehler, and acquiring Alex Bregman for three years at $120 million. Their roster features promising young players like Jarren Duran and Triston Casas, alongside experienced veterans. The team faces uncertainty in certain pitching positions but overall appears strong in a competitive American League, making them a contender for the World Series, as highlighted in The Athletic's updated Power Rankings.
"The additions of Alex Bregman, Garrett Crochet and Walker Buehler should push Boston into the heart of the American League race," Andy McCullough wrote.
"The Red Sox have questions at the back of the bullpen and at the end of the rotation, but the talent they assembled is undeniable."
