The World Champions currently are the Boston Red Sox. If there was ever a chance of a repeat, the odds of signing big names are dwindling. They lost a major key 2019 benefactor in Joe Kelly who joined the Dodgers for 3 years and $25 million, a number the Red Sox easily should have matched. Some argued that he wasn’t worth the 8+ annual salary over the three year deal. Okay, so they let Kelly go. Still there were some big names on the market.
Adam Ottavino was still there. He got snatched up by the Yankees.
