After failing to re-sign Alex Bregman, Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow made his first major offseason move by signing left-hander Ranger Suarez to a five-year, $130 million contract. This, alongside trades for Sonny Gray and Johan Oviedo, strengthens Boston’s starting rotation, potentially making it one of the best by 2026. Breslow’s focus has been on adding pitchers, particularly in the MLB Draft, where he selected 29 out of 41 pitchers. While his trade acquisitions have been hit-or-miss, the additions of Gray and Oviedo aim to improve his track record.
