Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Craig Breslow Explains The Red Sox Strategy

I feel like my answer is the same disappointing answer, which is it's so hard to tell because there are moments over the course of the offseason where you feel like you're minutes away from a trade coming together, a free agent signing, and then you look up a couple hours later and the whole thing dissolves.

I think we've been pushing all offseason, trying to have as many conversations as we can.

If it's free agency, it's getting uncomfortable.

If it's trade, it's putting guys in the conversation that we would much prefer to hold on to.

But I think we've prioritized the near term, 2026, pretty significantly.

And so any trade that we make, if we were to go down that path, I think we're mindful of making sure that we come out better in 2026 as a result of doing it.

I'm reluctant to commit to things at this point outside of saying that we know Marcel is going to play a very important role for us.

His defensive skills and also versatility are going to be really, really useful for us.

He's such a functional piece on a roster.

Presser: Craig Breslow Explains The Red Sox Strategy

He's still acclimating to the big leagues and he's having a productive offseason, bigger, stronger, moving really well.

So I think those types of questions will get answered as we get into spring trading and we see what comes together.
