However, they still did show some very nice signs of progress. The team had the bad luck of being in the same division as two of the top teams in baseball, the Baltimore Orioles and New York Yankees. But they still finished with a solid 81-81 record despite not making big offseason additions.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, certain young players like Brayan Bello and Ceddanne Rafaela showed signs that they could be key members of their core going forward. The Red Sox are again not expected to be big players in MLB free agency this winter. But that doesn\u2019t mean they won\u2019t look to make some impactful moves.
