\"Championship<\/p>\n

The Boston Red Sox aren’t in this year’s World Series, but quite a few familiar faces are.\u00a0There are seven former Red Sox\u00a0split between the Yankees and Dodgers’ rosters, but two stand out.<\/p>\n

Mookie Betts and Alex Verdugo will face off on opposite squads in the 2024 Fall Classic. Boston traded Betts and David Price to the Dodgers for Verdugo, Connor Wong and some prospects in 2019 in one of the team’s worst deals in recent history.\u00a0Five years later, Verdugo isn’t a Red Sox anymore\u00a0and he may help the Yankees take home their first Commissioner’s Trophy in 15 seasons.<\/p>\n

Fans have let the Red Sox organization have it for allowing the Betts trade to pan out this way, and MLB media has begun to weigh in on the front office’s moves. Insider\u00a0Jon Heyman roasted the Sox on his latest\u00a0Bleacher Report<\/em>\u00a0livestream.<\/p>\n

“This is not a great Red Sox series, where you’ve got Verdugo in the series and you’ve got Betts in the series, that doesn’t look good for the Red Sox,” Heyman said. “They need to make up for [trading Betts].”<\/p>\n

“Red Sox, time to try.”<\/p>\n

Jon Heyman tells Red Sox front office it’s ‘time to try’ to build a good team this offseason<\/h2>\n
