In an interview with Dan Shaughnessy of the Boston Globe on Wednesday, Red Sox team president and CEO Sam Kennedy admitted what has been obvious all winter: Boston is not trying to go all-in to be a World Series contender in 2021. I think it would be inaccurate to say we are going for it with an all-in approach that perhaps we did prior to the 2018 title,” Kennedy told Shaughnessy.
The good news for the Yankees is the Rays have lost significant pieces from their formidable starting rotation and the Red Sox are practically invisible this winter. The bad news is the Blue Jays are getting more dangerous by the day, adding George Springer to their young lineup and seemingly determined to keep spending in the free-agent market. How that all plays out should make for a fascinating season in the AL East.
As the Boston Red Sox look for roster depth with spring training on the horizon, one option reportedly on their radar is Kiké Hernandez. Per MLB Network's Jon Heyman, the Red Sox have a "high" level of interest in Hernandez, with the New York Mets among other teams looking into the veteran utilityman. After trading Mookie Betts and David Price to the Los Angeles Dodgers last offseason, the Red Sox have had a quiet winter.
