The 2024 season for the Boston Red Sox ended in disappointment as they were eliminated from playoff contention early, finishing third in the AL East. The first half saw a surprising performance, highlighted by strong pitching and standout players like Rafael Devers and Jarren Duran. However, injuries plagued key hitters and rotation struggles in the second half led to their decline.

Heading into the offseason, the Red Sox have immediate concerns, particularly in the pitching department where several relievers are set to hit free agency. Despite a lack of elite pitching prospects, the front office aims to add talent from outside. Additionally, elite prospects like Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer are nearing MLB readiness, potentially bolstering the team in 2025.
