Red Sox Face Key Player Departures Post-2025 Season Amid Trade Talks
The Boston Red Sox are preparing for a critical three-game Wild Card series against the New York Yankees, which will determine if they advance to face the Toronto Blue Jays. Key roster decisions loom for the offseason, including the likely departure of reliever Liam Hendriks due to injuries and age, despite his comeback story and fan popularity. Alex Bregman, a high-profile third baseman, also faces an uncertain future as he has an opt-out in his contract, and the team may pursue a trade for Nolan Arenado from the St. Louis Cardinals if Bregman leaves. The Red Sox are set to lean on pitchers Garrett Crochet and Brayan Bello in the series, with Lucas Giolito unlikely to play but potentially not retained after the season. Additionally, there is speculation about upgrading the rotation by trading for Cardinals ace Sonny Gray, who has shown willingness to waive his no-trade clause to join a contender. The postseason roster and strategy will be crucial as the Red Sox aim to build on their first playoff berth since 2021 and address both immediate and longer-term roster needs.
