The Boston Red Sox won the World Series in 2018 after a dominating 108-win regular season. They were primed to become a bit of a dynasty with tons of young and elite talent in the form of Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts, J.D. Martinez, Chris Sale, Rafael Devers, Andrew Benintendi and others.However, just four years later, most of the core from that season is gone. Only Sale and Devers remain, and Devers might end up walking in free agency next year. Sale has been injured the majority of the time.It was a shocking and relatively quick fall from grace. Betts won MVP in 2018 and was traded ahead of the 2020 season. The others were allowed to walk in free agency, most recently Bogaerts.He lands in San Diego with a monster 11-year, $280 million contract. Reports suggest the Red Sox didn't even attempt to match that offer. In fact, Bogaerts' agent didn't bother going back and trying because everyone knew they wouldn't.MLB podcaster and Red Sox superfan Jared Carrabis quote tweeted his own tweet from 2018, noting the elite talent the Sox had. He is understandably frustrated that everyone is gone now.Jared Carrabis@Jared_CarrabisGonna drown myself. twitter.com/jared_carrabis…Jared Carrabis@Jared_CarrabisIn the top 18 players in the American League MVP voting, there were three Red Sox players (Mookie Betts 1, JD Martinez 4, Xander Bogaerts 13) and one Yankee player (Aaron Judge 12).190868In the top 18 players in the American League MVP voting, there were three Red Sox players (Mookie Betts 1, JD Martinez 4, Xander Bogaerts 13) and one Yankee player (Aaron Judge 12). https://t.co/di0gEH8nRMGonna drown myself. twitter.com/jared_carrabis…Red Sox fans seem to agree with that. They're shocked, frustrated, sad and angry that the front office not only allowed this but seemed to facilitate it.Steven Murray@Nevets_yarruM@Jared_Carrabis How can you honestly let this happen?

Players come and go, but the core of a team, especially one who won it all, should stay relatively the same. However, that's not the case for Boston.In 2018, their lineup for one game of the World Series was:Mookie Betts, RFAndrew Benintendi, LFSteve Pearce, 1BJ.D. Martinez, DHXander Bogaerts, SSRafael Devers, 3BIan Kinsler, 2BSandy Leon, CJackie Bradley Jr., CFTampa Bay Rays v Boston Red SoxThere's only one remaining player from then. Martinez is a free agent, but with the way the Sox have been spending, a reunion is very unlikely. Here's a potential lineup for 2023:Matasaka Yoshida, LFEnrique Hernandez, CFDevers, 3BTrevor Story, SSAlex Verdugo, RFTriston Casas, DHEric Hosmer, 1BChristian Arroyo, 2BReese McGuire, CThey are far from that 2018 team now.
