2025 has a great chance of being worse than 2024. 

I would be really impressed if the Sox could manage to be the worst team in the history of baseball in back to back years.

Not likely. It takes way more than a "lack of talent" to lose 120 games. Teams full of AAA caliber players usually still win in the upper 40s, you need real dysfunction on top of a lack of talent to pull off what happened last year.

Ah well we should still have plenty of disfunction.

Assuming Venable is better than Pedro, which isn't a stretch, you're probably right. But if anyone could put a worse team on the field than 2024, its Chris Getz.

I love the idea of the 2024 team popping champagne when the 2025 team finishes with a worse record.

It's gonna happen then JR will cut payroll in 2026.   Then there will be charges against Reinsdorf for violating minimum wage laws.
