Red Sox Acquire Crochet: Is This Enough to Contend?
The Red Sox made a splash acquiring Garrett Crochet, but is this move enough to propel them back to the top of the AL East?

Is Crochet the true ace Boston needs to compete, or are they still a piece or two away?
Furthermore, the Red Sox prospect haul heading to Chicago is significant. Does this trade signal a shift in organizational strategy for the White Sox? Are they prioritizing a rebuild, and are Teel, Montgomery, Meidroth, and Gonzalez the cornerstones of their future? Weigh in on the long-term implications for both teams involved in this blockbuster deal.
Finally, what other moves should the Red Sox make this offseason? Bregman and Burnes are rumored targets. Are these the right fits? What would a potential lineup with Bregman and Devers look like? Share your ideal offseason plan for Boston and predict their chances of a playoff return in 2025.
