The Boston Red Sox missed the season for the third straight 12 months after ending the season with an 81-81 record and ending third in the American League East.
Although the Red Sox have had a difficult few years, they’re taking some steps this offseason to get the team back to winning ways.
The Red Sox acquired starting pitcher Garrett Crochet from the White Sox, signed relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman from the Pittsburgh Pirates and bought starting pitcher Walker Buehler from the Los Angeles Dodgers.
According to B/R Walk-Off on “X”, the Red Sox released a video promoting the signing of Buehler.

It appears the Red Sox had a plan to give attention to improving their game this offseason, as they added multiple starting pitchers and relief pitchers.
Buehler was the latest starting pitcher added to the lineup, and the team posted a promotional video on social media to rejoice the right-handed pitcher’s arrival to the team.
After entering the league in 2017 with the Dodgers and playing all seven seasons of his MLB profession with the team, Buehler will start playing for the Red Sox again in 2025.
In 2024 with the Dodgers, Buehler played in 16 games and had a 1-6 record with a 5.38 ERA and 64 strikeouts in 75.1 innings.
Buehler was coming off an injury that sidelined him for the entire 2023 season, and while the regular season was difficult, he appeared to find something in the postseason last 12 months.
The Red Sox will hope to accumulate a fully healthy Buehler for the 2025 season as they try to return to the postseason for the first time since 2021.
