Red Sox face uphill climb after Bregman exit, eye bold offseason move
Boston’s offseason has stalled after Alex Bregman left for the Cubs, leaving the Red Sox without any major free-agent signings while rivals upgrade. ESPN insider Jeff Passan suggests they’re not dead yet but must land a big move to keep pace in the AL East, with Bo Bichette quoted as a prime option and other pivots like Nico Hoerner, Brendan Donovan or Isaac Paredes on the table. They could also pursue trades that might require sacrificing top prospects, so Boston must act soon to avoid widening the gap to its peers.
