Key Points:
- The Boston Red Sox face a challenging offseason after losing Alex Bregman to the Chicago Cubs on a five-year, $175 million contract, risking the loss of momentum built in 2025.
- While Boston has made trades for Sonny Gray, Johan Oviedo, and Willson Contreras, they have yet to sign any major-league free agents, causing concerns amid league-wide upgrades.
- MLB insider Jeff Passan suggests the Red Sox need a significant move, such as acquiring Bo Bichette, to remain competitive in the American League East, as their current talent level lags behind rivals.
- The team still has options through free agency and trades but may need to part with top prospects to strengthen the roster and avoid falling further
