However, after the first few months of the offseason, Yankees fans, who just watched their team win the division and make it to the World Series, are already getting nervous about Boston's prospects for 2025 and beyond.

The Red Sox avoided salary arbitration with an All-Star outfielder, signing him to a guaranteed contract that can pay as much as $15.9 million.

The Boston Red Sox lost out on another star free agent in Anthony Santander, who just signed with the Toronto Blue Jays on a five-year, $90+ million dollar deal, per Jeff Passan. Santander fit the Red Sox’s bill for a right-handed slugger, but instead of getting him, he went from one division rival, the Baltimore Orioles, to another in Toronto.

The Baltimore Orioles received some sad news this week that former pitcher Brian Matusz passed away. He was only 37. The talented lefty gave Orioles fans plenty

Former New York Yankees reliever and 16-year veteran David Robertson is predicted to join the Boston Red Sox as a free agent.

Before Tanner Scott joined the Dodgers, he had interest from three AL East teams. Visit MLB Trade Rumors for more details.

In relying on Tyler O’Neill and Heston Kjerstad to replace Anthony Santander, the Orioles went with a cheaper path. But it’s not without risk.

The Orioles' and Rays' offseasons leave something to be desired, but it's reasonable to expect a strong 2025 from this group.

“The Pittsburgh Pirates are acquiring right-hander Chase Shugart in a trade with the Boston Red Sox for right-hander Matt McShane, according to sources familiar with the deal. Shugart was recently designated for assignment by the Red Sox,” Murray wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Though clearly improved, the Red Sox still don’t seem ready to go all-in. Instead, they’ve spent the offseason setting the table for a big push in 2026.

An under-the-radar trade candidate for the Mets could be Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle. Stuck in a platoon with Ryan O'Hearn in Baltimore, Mountcastle has quietly put up a 114 OPS+ in five seasons in the big leagues.

Dustin Pedroia was a gritty player who was a ROY, MVP and helped the Red Sox win two World Series titles. However, an injury cut his career short.
