Did Jeff Passan quietly suggest the Red Sox won’t spend significant money this winter? From @MattGross87

Early signs point to a trade for a starting pitcher as the biggest splash the Red Sox will make all offseason.

Sorry Mr. Giolito: it’s a business. I still wanna chat about movies with you, though, whether or not you pitch for the Red Sox. My latest with @OverTheMonster 😎
The Red Sox didn’t extend Lucas Giolito the qualifying offe, and that’s a good thing, writes @FitzyMoPena

My plea for the Red Sox to spend like they should in 2026. And if (when) they don't, how they could approach the offseason to still put a great product on the field. @OverTheMonster

No hard feelings, Lucas. It’s just a business, that’s all.

They haven’t gone past the first CBT threshold since 2019. Why should we assume that they will this year?

What’s the deal with Jarren Duran’s new contract? @MattGross87 does some speculating. https://t.co/CPurM7Nn8L

It’s probably nothing, but it also might be something.

Kristian Campbell went from future star to question mark in 2025, writes @BobOsgood15

He was one of the big three prospects entering 2025, but his season left a lot to be desired.

That’s the 20th most in baseball. He was also hurt and pitched as a starter. His last healthy season as a reliever, he threw 470 pitches >= 100 mph, 2nd most in baseball
@Jake3Roy Out of the 1199 pitches Hicks threw this year, only 48 were 100 mph and up.

David Hamilton played in too many games this year, writes @MattGross87. And how many games he plays in 2026 will be an indicator of whether Craig Breslow had a good offseason. https://t.co/WERkznRPkp

And now he’s a litmus test for how Craig Breslow does in the offseason.

He throws 100 mph sinkers. That’s all you need to know. Except for that he other stuff in here that you need to know

"Outside of Philadelphia, East Coast baseball remains fossilized, so we dig the same ground over and over, looking for any stray bones we might have missed, rather than look to the horizon and a sport’s manifest destiny, which has long passed us by." https://t.co/6DNJVS80BY

And we were robbed of the possibility of an all-time great moment three times. Kill the intentional walk.
Shohei Ohtani is 4-for-4 with 3 intentional walks He's the first player EVER to reach base safely 7 times in a #Postseason game
