What are the Boston Red Sox going to do now?
The Major League Baseball Winter Meetings are almost over and yet the Red Sox haven't been able to add another star to the organization despite giving its best effort in years. Juan Soto opted to join the New York Mets and more recently Max Fried chose the New York Yankees over Boston.There is one more bonafide ace available in free agency right now in Corbin Burnes. There are other pitchers out there that surely could help, but there isn't another true ace out there like Burnes.
"In any case, as of Tuesday afternoon, the Red Sox were readying an offer for Burnes, according to a source with knowledge of the talks. Burnes, who has also been linked to Toronto, San Francisco, and other clubs, could sign rather quickly with Fried off the board." Boston has missed out on two of the top three pitchers available this offseason in free agency. Could they land the third? Burnes is a four-time All-Star and one-time Cy Young Award winner. Landing him likely would be even more expensive than Fried, but would make fans forget about either of the other starters.Patrick McAvoy's experiences include local and national sports coverage at the New England Sports Network with a focus on baseball and basketball.
