The Red Sox have missed the playoffs in five of the six seasons since they won it all in 2018. They seem to be transitioning again, with veteran Alex Bregman, rookie Kristian Campbell, and pitcher Garrett Crochet now the faces of the franchise. The team has been a very mediocre team around .500 the last three seasons, but they are hoping a new look can provide a new outlook.
