The Boston Red Sox face critical roster decisions as the offseason heats up. Which position players stay, and who becomes trade bait? Gabby (Hurlbut) Maljanian breaks down every non-pitcher on the 40-man roster, analyzing their 2025 performance and 2026 outlook. The catching situation remains uncertain with Carlos Narváez and Connor Wong both struggling offensively. Triston Casas's injury-plagued season leaves the Red Sox in an awkward position at first base, while Kristian Campbell's future hangs in the balance after a disappointing year. The outfield presents a different challenge—too many players and not enough spots. Jarren Duran, Wilyer Abreu, and Jhostynxon Garcia could all be moved, while Roman Anthony emerges as the franchise cornerstone. Trevor Story's bounce-back season provides stability at shortstop, but questions linger about Masataka Yoshida's role if Boston pursues Kyle Schwarber or Pete Alonso. Discover which Red Sox players are most likely to be traded and where the team's biggest needs lie heading into spring training. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
