The MLB offseason continues into 2025 as several high-profile free agents, including Juan Soto and Corbin Burnes, have signed elsewhere. The Boston Red Sox are among the teams actively seeking upgrades, particularly looking to enhance their infield and add a right-handed bat. They've made notable additions this winter, including Garrett Crochet and Walker Buehler, but may pursue further signings or trades, eyeing players like Alex Bregman and Nolan Arenado.

Meanwhile, the Oakland Athletics have also been active, signing Luis Severino and Gio Urshela, and trading for Jeffrey Springs. General manager David Forst hinted at more potential moves, particularly in starting pitching, though they may not target the top-tier free agents. Veteran reliever Tommy Kahnle remains an attractive option, attracting interest from multiple teams following a strong season with the New York Yankees.
