There's Nothing Going On In Fort Myers

That's how Shank sums up the offseason & the start of spring training for the Red Sox:

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Dave Dombrowski looks tanned and rested. Which makes sense. He hasn’t done much of anything since the Red Sox were knocked out of the first round of the playoffs last October. Dombrowski just presided over the quietest offseason in Red Sox history.

This was the baseball winter in which Dombro didn’t trade any boatloads of prospects for proven talents. He didn’t sign anyone to a $217 million contract. He didn’t acquire any long relievers destined to spend the season on the disabled list. He didn’t do much of anything.
