Farm system has been gutted but it has brought back a lot.

Chris Sale cost their top 2 prospects.
They got Drew Pomenraz last year for a stud prospect pitcher who is getting Tommy John now.
They traded 4 prospects including 2 decent ones for Craig Kimbrel.

The trades have gutted the system but they have yielded all solid returns.

The problem for the Red Sox is they have no leadership and are front runners who can't grind. They score 4 runs they win. They score 3 or less they can't win.

The Sox farm system has home grown most of their team. Betts, Bradley Jr. Bientiendi, Bogaerts, Pedroia are all home grown.
They have 3 legit prospects left. Including a real super prospect in Rafael Devers. He would be the Red Sox Clint Frazier.

The only one making real money is Pedroia. They have wasted 31 million dollars on Price. The ownership wasted 41 million dollars on Ramirez and the released Sandoval. Their contracts run out in 2 years and the ownership won't go over the luxury tax. Sandoval and Hanley are killing the payroll but Pedroia and Price are babies killing the clubhouse with toxicity.
