I view both Boston Red Soxs and the LA Dodgers as the most imporved MLB teams of the year. The big trade did both teams well.
Agreed, getting Gonzalez, Crawford, and Punto helped the Dodgers tremendously this year. In the longer run, the Red Sox will have the advantage as they got younger players and freed up money to get older players.
so did spending half a billion dollars as did the dodgers.
