Maria Chavez+FollowRed Sox Lose Criswell to Mets in Waiver DramaTough break for the Sox Nation—Cooper Criswell, the depth arm Boston hoped to sneak through waivers, just got scooped up by the Mets. After the Sox traded for Johan Oviedo and Tyler Samaniego, they had to DFA Criswell, and New York pounced. It’s a classic roster chess match: Boston gambled with an $800K contract to keep Criswell, but the Mets saw value in his five-year experience. Did the Sox make the right call, or will this move haunt them later? #Sports #Baseball #RedSox10Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowRed Sox’s pitching depth could spark big movesBoston’s rotation just got even deeper after landing Johan Oviedo, and now the Red Sox have four arms—Crochet, Gray, Oviedo, and Bello—that are reportedly off-limits in trade talks. With this much pitching firepower, Boston is suddenly in a position most teams envy as the Winter Meetings kick off. It feels like the Sox could be gearing up for a blockbuster move, or maybe they’ll just enjoy the luxury of options for once. What do you think—should Boston keep stacking arms, or package some for a major bat? #Sports #Baseball #RedSox00Share
