Robbie Grossman and Wilmer Flores are intriguing to me because they both have good platoon splits against lefties which we might be needing next year as we just let go of one of our best hitter against lefties. Jordan Patterson is also an interesting guy. Not much major league playing experience, but he put up some good numbers in AAA (though it was in a hitters park in the PCL) and he got claimed by several teams so other organizations think he might be something too.

The Sox lost 470lbs and got a whole lot better today. 

They did not get better today. They saved $10 million and 2 roster spots. That alone doesn't make them a whole lot better. What they do with those roster spots could make them better.  But only if they use it well.

2B- Moncada

SS- Anderson

3B- Moustakas

LF- Santana

CF- Engel

RF- Gonzalez

DH- Palka

Bench- McCann, Leury, Rondon, Delmonico

I would loosely guesstimate the payroll around $90 mil while making the team fairly intriguing and competitive. Kikuchi is the only contract beyond 2020.

Both have 3 years. If you're using Baseball Reference, guys who are free agents this current off-season are listed as 2019. Syndergaard is listed as 2022 meaning 21 is his last year of control.

Sorry thought Kluber had 2 more years left
