The Red Sox are the cautionary tale of the season. With $267.4M on the books — top-eight money in baseball — they've managed only 25 wins. That's $10.7M per W, a brutal ratio. Injuries, underperformance, or bad fits — whatever the cause, ownership is paying premium prices for replacement-level results.
