August 16, 20223 yr Abreu at 3.5 fWAR is the 3rd most valuable first baseman in the MLB (behind Freeman and Goldschmidt), most valuable in the AL.

August 27, 20223 yr The Sox have six legitimate Major League hitters a team would want on their roster Circa August 2022: Abreu, Anderson, Jimenez, Moncada, Robert, Vaughn. You either keep these six and find actual starting C, 2B and RF and play for 2023-2024, or you hire a competent GM to sell off what you can and target 2025-2026 as the first legitimate “multi-championship window” season since 2005.
