    The Yankees made a serious effort to improve their team. And it shows. The Sox have not made a serious effort to improve their team. And it shows.
    Old school is good school.

    This is easy to explain, even for John Henry: The Yankees are the most profitable team in baseball, so they can afford all the great players. The Red Sox are only third-most profitable, behind NY and LA...

    ... so Boston is only richer than 27 other clubs -- and even worse, only has a 1 in 30 chance to ever recruit and sign actual good ballplayers who aren't rehabbing, injury-prone or doomed by a higher power to career-risking malfunctions while performing athletic exercises like throwing or diving for a ball, swinging a bat, riding stationary bikes or walking down dugout steps.

    Just about.

    I mentioned Gil only because he was in competition with Houck for top SP'er in 2024.

    Still have half a season left and neither pitcher has thrown a ton of innings in a season before. I'd guess they don't finish within the top 5 by year end.
