Red Sox Pursue Trade for Devin Williams

The Boston Red Sox are looking to make significant improvements this offseason, focusing on adding a frontline starting pitcher, righty bats, and bullpen reinforcements after a lackluster 2024 season. They are actively engaged in trade discussions for White Sox starter Garrett Crochet but have deemed top prospect Roman Anthony 'unlikely' to be traded. Furthermore, the Red Sox have signed lefty reliever Justin Wilson and appointed Chris Holt as their new bullpen coach to address their bullpen's struggles, which included 27 blown saves last season. Additionally, Boston is eyeing a trade for Brewers closer Devin Williams to strengthen their pitching staff, particularly after the departure of free agent Kenley Jansen. Meanwhile, the New York Mets are also seeking starting pitching, with Corbin Burnes emerging as a top target. The Philadelphia Phillies are exploring trades and free agent options to revamp their roster after consecutive playoff misses, including potential interest in both Garrett Crochet and Devin Williams to bolster their bullpen.
