MLB insider explained why Red Sox have a ‘bigger issue’ than trying to sign Juan Soto

Ken Rosenthal’s view of Red Sox offseason priorities: Following a disappointing 81-81 season in 2024, the Red Sox are aiming to retool the team’s roster during the offseason.

While a clear priority continues to be courting highly-sought free agent Juan Soto, Boston also has other needs if it wants to compete in 2025.

Ken Rosenthal, an MLB reporter for The Athletic, recently broke down what the Red Sox front office’s aims should be.

Acknowledging at the outset that he thinks it’s “good to hear that the Red Sox are in on Juan Soto,” given that Boston currently has money to spend, Rosenthal prefaced by explaining the potential signing of the 26-year-old slugger would be a huge lift for the organization.
