Red Sox fans and MLB reporters and personalities have questioned Boston’s 2023-24 offseason plan … and really most things they have done since the conclusion of the 2018 World Series.
Fingers have been pointed in all directions to try and come up with an explanation for what the organization is doing. From former chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom to CEO and president Sam Kennedy, no one in the front office has been safe from blame in the news, on social media or otherwise.
The blame game has finally reached the highest level of baseball reporting. MLB insider and known New York guy Jon Heyman has taken aim at John Henry and Fenway Sports Group to try and explain Boston’s inexplicable philosophy.
He didn’t say anything Red Sox Nation hasn’t already known for months, but it’s promising to hear someone as high-profile in the baseball business as Heyman calling Henry and FSG out for their shenanigans.

Heyman made sure to give Henry his flowers for his successes at the helm of the Red Sox organization. Four championships in 14 years is nothing to sneeze at, particularly since no other team has won as many as the Sox since the beginning of the millennium.
Then, Heyman went on to highlight Boston’s moves this offseason, and explained how most of them didn’t move the needle the way the Sox needed them to, even with their “limitless resources and notoriously loyal fans.”
