Red Sox Announce Young, Unproven Rotation for 2024 Season

Mixed reactions from fans as team focuses on building around young core, with Whitlock and Houck winning final spots.

The Boston Red Sox have announced their starting rotation for the 2024 season, featuring Brayan Bello, Nick Pivetta, Kutter Crawford, Garrett Whitlock, and Tanner Houck.
Fans express mixed reactions to the new rotation, with some calling it 'tremendously meager' and questioning the lack of a proven ace.
Garrett Whitlock and Tanner Houck win the final spots in the rotation after competing in spring training, with both pitchers looking to rebound from surgeries and disappointing performances last season.
Manager Alex Cora expresses confidence in the young rotation, emphasizing the importance of building around the young core for the 2024 season.
Despite concerns, the Red Sox remain hopeful that the unproven rotation can lead them to surprise contention this season.
