It sounds like the Boston Red Sox<\/a> are going to be heavily involved with some of the top players on the market this winter, as it’s evident they have an opportunity to compete for a World Series as early as next season.<\/p>\n

With some veteran talent, youngsters, and everything in between, the Red Sox are a very good team on paper.<\/p>\n

If it hadn’t been for a slow start a year ago and a few injuries, the 2025 campaign likely would\u2019ve gone differently for the Red Sox.<\/p>\n

When searching for ways for the Red Sox to improve their starting rotation, Joel Reuter of Bleacher Report recently predicted they’d be in the mix for a San Diego Padres<\/a> free agent, and that’s none other than right-hander Dylan Cease, who is regarded as one of the better starters in baseball when he’s at his best.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Red Sox could sit on their hands, as some combination of Connelly Early, Payton Tolle, Kyle Harrison, and a healthy Patrick Sandoval is enough to give them a quality rotation behind ace Garrett Crochet and Brayan Bello.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, they could also be one of the market’s most aggressive teams, targeting one of the top-tier starters in free agency and swinging a deal to acquire someone like MacKenzie Gore or Joe Ryan. They have the spending ability and the young trade chips to get it done,\u201d he wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As Padres fans know at this point, Cease is a somewhat polarizing player to evaluate.<\/p>\n

When he’s throwing the baseball at a very high level, he’s as good as it gets.<\/p>\n

However, if he\u2019s what he was in 2025, he’s rather below average.<\/p>\n

Depending on the price, however, it might not be the worst idea for Boston to give him a look.<\/p>\n
