The Red Sox can keep all their stars. Will they pay them?

Let’s look at how J.D. Martinez’s return could — and should — affect Mookie Betts and the Red Sox.

The Boston Red Sox retained their cleanup hitter, with J.D. Martinez deciding to stay rather than test the murky free agent waters by opting out of his contract. However, with a front office overhaul amid talk of “sustainability” among Red Sox brass, one wonders if that was the decision Boston was really hoping for.

Martinez hit 79 home runs with a .985 OPS in his first two seasons with the Red Sox, and finished fourth in AL MVP voting in 2018, an integral part of the Red Sox winning the World Series. He’s a huge part of a lineup that has scored the second-most runs in baseball (5.48 per game) since his arrival, and has the fifth-best wRC+ (108).

Martinez chose not to opt out of the three years and $62.5 million remaining on his contract, which will pay him $23.75 million in 2020.

Since the start of 2014, Martinez has a 151 wRC+, second only to Mike Trout, and his 207 home runs over the last six years rank fifth in baseball.

From a purely baseball standpoint, Martinez eschewing free agency — or at least putting it off for a year, as he has another chance to opt out after next season — should make the Red Sox ecstatic, and have their front office jump for joy like those old Toyota “Oh, what a feeling” commercials.

But baseball, as you know, is a business. This is nothing new of course, but the last few years have seen a change at the top of the food chain. Baseball has had a competitive balance tax in some form or another since 2003, and the Yankees, MLB’s biggest financial behemoth, coming into 2019 paid nearly double in taxes than every other team combined, over $330 million. The Dodgers were second at $150 million.

In 2018, however, both the Yankees and Dodgers both managed to stay under the $197 million payroll threshold, avoiding the luxury tax for the first time in ages. Both made the playoffs, and both were eliminated by the Red Sox, whose $239.5 million payroll was by far the biggest in baseball. Their luxury tax bill was $12 million, but among the perks was 108 wins and a World Series championship.

The homegrown Mookie Betts was AL MVP, but several other main cogs in the championship wheel — David Price, Chris Sale, Craig Kimbrel, and Martinez — were acquired by general manager Dave Dombrowski, who signed three of the four to nine-figure contracts.

A lesson to be drawn here could be “acquiring great players is good” and pushing forward in that regard, but it seems the Red Sox went another way. If fellow financial stalwarts like the Yankees and Dodgers aren’t spending and are using the CBT threshold as a de facto salary cap, and are still winning, why can’t we?

The 2019 season helped reinforce the latter position, with the Yankees and Dodgers each winning over 100 games while staying under (or at least very close to, in the Dodgers’ case) the luxury tax threshold. The Red Sox, meanwhile, had another expensive payroll, estimated at $239 million by Cot’s Baseball Contracts. They also didn’t win, thanks to nearly the entire starting rotation either getting hurt or underperforming, or both. An 84-win season and no playoff berth for the first time in four years cost Dombrowski his job, and brought with it a clear sign the Red Sox were ready to cut costs.

“The CBT is always a guidepost in our budgeting,” Red Sox CEO Sam Kennedy said in an end-of-season press conference when Dombrowski was let go. “It is a goal, but not a hard and fast mandate.”

Team owner John Henry was more blunt a few days earlier. From Mass Live:

“This (coming) year we need to be under the CBT,” Henry said. “That was something we’ve known for more than a year now.”

Henry later added, “We may not be under. It’s our goal to be under.”

Martinez returning made that goal very difficult, given how the Red Sox are currently constructed, and this is where it gets even more macabre. There are seven players currently under contract for 2020, with a total competitive balance tax payroll of $151 million per Cot’s (this includes estimates for minor leaguers and player benefits, the latter which is fixed for every team). Boston has another 12 players eligible for salary arbitration, with MLB Trade Rumors projecting their total salaries at $70 million. In other words, the Red Sox are at $221 million, already over next year’s $208 million CBT threshold, without addressing the pitching needs with Rick Porcello a free agent and Chris Sale hurt (the Red Sox ace avoided Tommy John surgery in August, getting a PRP injection instead, but his recovery timetable is still up in the air).

Suddenly that flexibility the Red Sox covet isn’t quite there, unless they do something drastic. Trading Martinez would qualify, though I suspect the limited market — fewer MLB teams actually trying to win, plus he’s best suited for designated hitter, which makes it harder for National League teams to bid — Martinez would have received on the free agent market makes it that much tougher for Boston to trade him.

That leaves Betts, who will be a free agent after 2020. Again, on its face, from a baseball standpoint, trading Betts is organizational seppuku. If a rich team can’t afford to keep their best homegrown player in literally decades, what the hell hope does the rest of the sport have?

Kennedy in that season-ending press conference acknowledged the challenge of keeping both Martinez and Betts. From NBC Sports Boston:

“Yes, there is a way but obviously it will be difficult given the nature of the agreements and the contracts that we have in place,” Kennedy said. ”Look, we have a very targeted and strategic plan that we’re building right now.”

The Red Sox then hired Chaim Bloom to run their baseball operations department. Bloom is well honed in competing on a budget thanks to his decade plus with the Rays, and in his introductory press conference with the Red Sox the word “sustainability” in some form was used seven times, including as a direct answer of what lies ahead for Betts and Martinez. In baseball circles, “sustainability” is code for “keeping costs down.”

The lure of trading Betts can’t be ignored, as he is one of the best players in baseball and would fetch the kind of a prospect haul that could rebuild a declining farm system and lead to that coveted sustainability. After all, one of those prospects might one day turn into a Mookie Betts!

If your head wasn’t spinning enough from the mental gymnastics needed to justify the Red Sox dealing away their best players, Ken Rosenthal at The Athletic offered another alternative, even including possibly trading one of Boston’s best young players who would help with that sustainability:

A better path might be to move left-hander David Price, who is owed $96 million over the next three years, or righty Nathan Eovaldi, who is owed $51 million over the next three. Impossible, you say? Well, what if the Red Sox included cash in a trade and also attached left fielder Andrew Benintendi, who remains cost-effective as he enters his first year of arbitration?

Forbes for instance earlier in 2019 valued the Red Sox at $3.2 billion, the third most-valuable franchise in MLB, a huge appreciation from the $380 million Henry and his group purchased the club for in 2002. Included in Henry’s ownership tenure is four championships and the subsequent revenue bumps associated with deep postseason runs. In their title-winning year of 2018, for instance, Forbes estimated the Red Sox baseball-related revenue for the year at $484 million.

In other words, the Red Sox can afford to keep Martinez and Betts, plus make any additions they need to get back to the playoffs. With record revenues across the sport, cutting costs is very rarely a need, but rather an ownership choice.

The real answer here is the Red Sox — if they want to win — should horde as many great players as possible, and not trade them away.

The 1903 Hotel Bretton Hall - 2350 Broadway

In 1902 developer brothers James and David Todd commissioned the fledgling architect Harry B. Mulliken to design a minor structure--a one-story wooden tool shed on West 114th Street. It may have been a test of sorts, one which Mulliken apparently passed. The following year Mulliken and his new partner, Edgar Moeller were working on three substantial hotel commissions for the Todds, the Hotel York at Seventh Avenue and 36th Street, the Aberdeen Hotel at 17 West 32nd Street, and the Bretton Hall Hotel, which would engulf the entire eastern blockfront on Broadway from 85th to 86th Street. The Todd brothers had purchased the undeveloped Bretton Hall site from Le Grand K. Pettit. They took out a $1.25 million building loan toward Mulliken's total projected construction costs of $1.55 million--just below $47 million today. The architect's plans called for "187 suites, with 506 rooms, 231 baths, and 385 toilet rooms." As construction neared completion, the Todds leased the property to hoteliers Anderson & Price for 21 years. It appears to be Anderson & Price who named the hotel. They additionally ran the newly-opened Mount Washington Hotel at Bretton Woods in the New Hampshire White Mountains. Completed in 1903, the Bretton Hall Hotel sat on a three-story base of rusticated stone. Nine floors of red brick, limestone and terra cotta rose to an elaborate iron cornice that sprouted frothy ornaments. Mulliken's insertion of seven-story stretches of quoins and stone-faced bays gave the structure verticality and visually relieved the heavy mass.

The newly-completed hotel had no storefronts and an exuberant galvanized iron cornice. Not the 86th Street subway entrance hugging the side of the building (left) photo by Wurtz Bros. from the collection of the Museum of the City of New York

The New-York Tribune commented on the behind-the-scenes technology necessary to operate the resident hotel. "The building has an electric plant, four engines, four boilers, four dynamos, a cold storage, laundry and kitchen plant." The article added "It also has six elevators and a United States mail chute." Unlike transient hotels, resident hotels like Bretton Hall leased suites to long-term tenants. They enjoyed the amenities of a hotel--barber shop, dining room, maid, hallboy and messenger service, for instance--along with the relative permanence of an apartment building. On November 1, 1904 Mrs. John Jay Tonkin of Oswego, New York, moved into a suite with her 11-year old daughter, Rosamond. The Evening Telegram explained that they were "driven from their luxurious home on Lake Ontario by dread the child would be stolen." John Tonkin was well-known as an iron manufacturer and philanthropist in Oswego. For more than two years his family had been terrorized by threats of Rosamond's kidnapping and worse. The Evening Telegram said "It is believed the man is an artist, for many of the letters were illustrated with sketches of the girl and of the fate which it might be expected she would meet if she fell into the hands of her pursuers. Tortures and death by pistol and poison were pictured with such hideous vividness that they, as much as the threats, undermined the health of the fond mother." Even with Rosamond (whom The Evening Telegram described as "tall and well developed for her age") and her mother now secretly ensconced in Bretton Hall, no chances were taken. The Tonkin coachman accompanied Rosamond to school on 70th Street near Riverside Drive. It was the only time she was permitted outside, "as she was kept indoors at other times through fear, and had become pale." Four months after Rosamond and her mother moved into their apartment, the threats had stopped. And so in March 1905 "Rosamond was permitted to trundle a hoop on the sidewalk in front of Bretton Hall." On each occasion the doorman, Charles Lytle, was instructed "to keep his eyes constantly upon her," reported The Evening Telegram. But "Something called him into the house for a moment one day and when he returned to the sidewalk he saw the child in conversation with a man and walking near Eighty-sixth street." Lytle ran after them, grabbing Rosamond, at which point the man rushed away. Later Mrs. Tonkin received a letter demanding $50,000. The writer promised that if the money were not paid, Rosamond would be kidnapped. Instead, John Tonkin offered the $50,000--about $1.47 million today--to anyone who could identify the man. Handwriting experts were called in. With their whereabouts now known, Rosamond's mother took her back to the family house in Oswego. Undeterred by the intensified hunt for him, the extortionist sent a new demand on June 8: "Dear Sir: Unless we have $100,000 before June 10 at noon we will take your Rosamond. You had better call off your detectives. Remember June 10 at 12. Mr. The Three." (As a side note, the threats eventually stopped and Rosamond was married to Ensign Forrest U. Lake of the U.S. Navy a decade later in 1914.) In the meantime, the meeting rooms of Bretton Hall were used by clubs and organizations. Only the well-to-do could afford automobiles and motor yachts and in November 1904 The New York Motor Club was formed in Bretton Hall. At its inaugural meeting on November 17, the purposes submitted by the Committee on Constitution and By-Laws were "to encourage the interest of motoring on land and water." But one member shouted out, "Why not add in the air?" For years inventors had struggled to perfect a flying machine and, as a matter of fact, the Wright brothers had successfully flown their biplane for 59 seconds the previous December. The suggestion prompted a heated debate which, according to The New York Times, "waxed hotter and hotter." Nevertheless before the meeting adjourned the purposes of the club had been amended to "promote motoring on land, water and in the air." A month later, early on the morning of December 14, 1904, the "engineer" (one of the staff tasked with minding the heavy equipment) went to the basement to "start the engines and dynamos," as reported by The Evening Telegram. "He found the cellar filled with four feet of water. Barrels and boxes were floating about. Hundreds of dollars' worth of machinery had been damaged." A large water main had broken and burst through the 86th Street subway station wall, "hurling aside the wall of the subway as if the bricks were merely chips of wood." The flooded subway was crippled throughout most of the day and traffic was closed on Broadway until around 1:30. The Evening Telegram said "One of the places which suffered most was the big Bretton Hall apartment house."

Residents looking forward to a warm breakfast that morning would be disappointed. The kitchen, also in the basement, was out of commission. But the inconvenience to the 175 families living here went much beyond that. "The hotel is without elevator service or electric lights and no heat can be supplied until the cellar is cleared. No meals can be served, and the patrons are forced to seek out refectories elsewhere." And because four $5,000 boilers were destroyed, the entire building was without heat in the December cold. Society women routinely gathered in the dining rooms of New York hotels for tea and luncheon. But they were unwelcome without a male escort after 6:00. At the dawn of the women's rights movement, some well-to-women had had enough. One socialite complained to a reporter "To be sure, it might be that the man in the case was only a messenger boy brought in from the nearest telegraph office for the express purpose of complying with the letter of the law," but being seated without "a mere man" was impossible. To fight back the Equity Suffrage Club was formed in Bretton Hall in 1908. It was composed, according to one account, "of both men and women" and its first attack would be a boycott of those hotels following the system. In February 1909 Anderson & Price purchased the hotel they had been leasing since its opening. In reporting on the deal, the New-York Tribune remarked "It is one of the largest exclusive apartment hotels in this city." For years the residents would appear in society columns and on the membership lists of exclusive clubs. Typical of them were Alden M. Young, the senior partner of Young & Warner and a director in two dozen corporations, and his wife. The Evening World called him "well known in club and fraternal circles, having been a member of the Union League Club, the Railroad Club, the Recess Club, and Odd Fellows and Royal Arcanum." The ballroom of the hotel was often the scene of society weddings, as well. On January 30, 1911, for instance, Eva Arnold, daughter of Standard Oil Company official Edward D. Arnold, was married to Earle Wayne Webb here. The New York Times mentioned "The presents, which numbered 250, filled three rooms of the first floor of the hotel." It was apparent the following year that Anderson & Price were now accepting some transient guests. And the arrivals on October 7, 1912, may have been a bit unnerving to strait-laced residents. The Sun reported "In splendid physical condition and confident of victory, the Red Sox arrived here from Boston at 6 o'clock last evening and went to Bretton Hall." Nevertheless, the long-term residents continued to be both well-heeled and well-known. Among them in 1913 was Henry L. Brittain, treasurer of the H. L. Brittain Company on Park Row. His was a ground-breaking firm manufactured "moving picture machines for the home." He was also treasurer of the Granite Spring Water Company, the Anchor metal Novelty Company and the Simplex Camera Company. On January 2, 1913 the New-York Tribune reported on a significant turn of events for the wealthy businessman. He had traveled to Britain regarding the settlement of an estate. According to dispatches received by the Tribune from London, Brittain "was robbed of documents that related to an estate valued at $5,000,000." Brittain told investigators he "does not expect to recover the lost documents which were stolen from his kit bag," but offered a $250 reward, nevertheless. Brittain was among the last of the long-term residents. Anderson & Price advertised Bretton Hall in 1914 as "New York City's Largest Transient Uptown Hotel." The ad touted "exceptionally large, quiet rooms with baths...All the comforts of the better New York Hotels at one-third less price." A sketch of the building clearly showed that the cornice was still fully intact. But two years later that condition was slightly different. An advertisement in the New-York Tribune on December 3, 1916 called the Hotel Bretton Hall the "largest and most attractive uptown hotel" with single rooms and a bath priced at $2.50 and $3 per day, and suites at $4 to $7.50. The most expensive accommodations would be about $177 in today's money. But the photograph showed that cornice had been toned down, possibly in an attempt to keep the building looking up to date.

Despite the change from resident to transient, Bretton Hall continued to be a location for society weddings. Such was the case on June 26, 1916 when Esther Ford, the daughter of State Supreme Court Justice John Ford, was married to John Cassan Wait here. Ford had also served in the State Senate in 1895. Well-dressed patrons were, perhaps, unaware of labor problems with the waiter's union when they sat down in the Bretton Hall dining room on the evening of June 16, 1919. But Price & Anderson were well informed and prepared for problems. The New York Times reported that the 50 waiters, "stood at their posts, appraising the guests as they entered for the meal. According to one of the guests, there was an air of expectancy about part of the waiters, and this was explained when a whistle blew." Immediately upon hearing the whistle, the waiters formed a line and "with military precision departed." The well-timed strike was planned to cause the most upheaval as possible. But Price & Anderson were well ahead of the potential disaster. The Times wrote "But just as the last of the strikers went through the door fifty substitute waiters came in another. So far as the guests were concerned the walkout merely served to show that most of the strikers had learned correct marching while in the service." A much more disturbing incident brought Bretton Hall back into the newspapers in November that year. Frank A. Skelton and his wife were residents of Montreal, but had taken rooms in Bretton Hall for the winter. On Saturday night, November 22 the couple went to the theater. When they returned about midnight, "they found everything topsy turvy," said The New York Times. "Drawers from dressing tables, desks and bureaus were scattered on the tops of the tables, and clothing had been thrown upon the floor by the visitors in their search for jewels. Two jewel cases had been emptied and left open on one of the tables." The thieves were successful in their search. They had made off with "about thirty diamond rings, watches, necklaces and other valuable pieces of jewelry." The loss was estimated at about $290,000 in today's money. Mrs. Skelton refused to confirm that number, saying merely "Some of the pieces were so old as to be considered treasures; others were new, made of diamonds and platinum, and were of unusual design. The loss was heavy." Living in the hotel "in luxurious fashion," according to The New York Herald, at the time was Mrs. May Jennings Bennett, a 32-year old widow widely known in religious circles. She was vice-president of the Women's Foreign Missionary Society and was active in the work of the Fort Washington Presbyterian Church. As so it was most likely a great surprise to many when police knocked on her door on October 3, 1919 to arrest her. Mrs. Jennings, through her church work, came in contact with many moneyed women. At teas or lunches in her Bretton Hall apartment she would mention that she was embarking on real estate projects--purchasing old houses in order to replace them with modern apartment buildings. After she had interested her victims in the potential, she would even take them to the see the properties, none of which she actually owned. She then collected thousands of dollars "investment" from her unwitting dupes. May Jennings's defense was even more startling. When a journalist visited her jail cell on January 10, 1920, she said "I admit I played the part of a crook, but my downfall is due to the psychic divine control a man, formerly a Presbyterian minister, has had over me for the last year. That man conducts mystic ceremonies up near Central Park, and during all the time I was robbing my friends and acquaintances of thousands of dollars, I was under a spell cast over me by him." Her trial was held on January 21. She pleaded guilty and offered her curious explanation. Judge Mulqueen was not swayed. "I am convinced you are a common and base swindler," he said before announcing her sentence of nine years in prison. When her lawyer pleaded for leniency, the judge reminded him that he could have imposed the maximum penalty of 40 years. "I think she is being treated leniently." An even bigger jewelry heist than the Skelton robbery happened two months later. Mr. and Mrs. Charles MacManus of Rye, New York, took rooms on the fourth floor here in the spring of 1920. On March 30 Mrs. McManus placed her jewelry in a trunk after dressing for luncheon. The following evening, when dressing for dinner, she found that someone had been in the trunk. Missing were about 35 pieces of jewelry. Their total value, $30,000, would be equal to more than $375,000 today. The pieces were insured, unfortunately, for only about half their value. Ironically, the most valuable of the pieces had been in a safe deposit vault and had only been removed a few days earlier for appraisal. The proprietors of the hotel embarked on a forward-thinking plan for its employees in February 1927--shared-cost benefits. The New York Times explained "The Hotel Bretton Hall joined its employes in the purchase of a $225,000 group life insurance policy from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company." More than 200 employees now not only had a life insurance policy, but an early form of health benefits. "The plan includes a visiting nurse service, distribution of health conservation pamphlets and provides for the payment of an employe's insurance in full if he becomes totally and permanently disabled before the age of 60." In June 1929 the owners, Benjamin Winter, Inc., hired architects Springsteen & Goldhammer to make renovations, including converting the southern half of the street level to shops The Times noted that "remodeling of the interior of the 500-room structure is also under way." The renovations resulted in 150 single rooms, 120 two-room suites, 25 three-room "apartments," seven four-rooms suites and, along with the stores, a bar and restaurant.

An advertising postcard shows the shops in the southern end of the building.

In 1931 another store, much less architecturally invasive, was installed in the northern corner for The Chase National Bank. The heyday for Bretton Hall seems to have passed by 1939 when a room cost $2.50 per night. It was a mere fraction of the amount charged in 1916.

The 1931 commercial space, now a Citibank branch, was sympathetically inserted into the base.

In February 1950 the newly-formed Hotel Bretton Hall, Inc., headed by Grace Bordiga, purchased the structure. In reporting the sale, The New York Times noted "Improvements planned by the new operators...include plans for dining room so that it can be used for catering purposes and the installation of kitchenettes in some additional apartments." While still offering 78 hotel rooms, the renovated Bretton Hall now included dentists offices and, on the second floor, the Rutledge Club and offices. Somewhat surprisingly, the building became a center of the Upper West Side Haitian community. Decades later, in 1993, Rev. Thomas Wenski, director of the Pierre Toussaint Haitian Catholic Center recalled to a New York Times reporter "Our community was centered on the West Side of Manhattan, mostly around 86th Street along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue...A number of families managed to congregate at the Bretton Hall." The ballroom here was rented by campaign of Representative Bella Abzug to watch the election results of July 20, 1972. Although the 51-year old Congressional freshman had hoped to rally the feminist vote, she and her supporters were disappointed when it became obvious she had been unseated. In the early 1980's an organization called the Artists Assistance Services took advantage of the low rents in Bretton Hall to scoop up apartments and offer them to "people in the arts." New York Magazine cautioned, however, "But there was a little clause attached: The tenant had to share his living room with a 'cultural activity.'" And so artist Abby Cahn shared hers with a karate class. That was a problem, she found out, when the karate instructor refused to let her have any furniture. And if classes were in session she was not allowed to enter. Emad Salem, living here in 1993, was a translator and bodyguard for Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, known commonly in the United States as "the Blind Sheikh." Following the World Trade Center bombing that year, Salem made himself available to to the F.B.I., who later said "Mr. Salem was central to the arrests of the accused plotters, luring them to make statements that were recorded, helping to test explosives and even renting the house in Jamaica, Queens, where the suspects are accused of mixing the fertilizer and fuel for the bombs." With Salem's assistance, the F.B.I. was able to wiretap that house. Following the arrest of the sheikh and his cronies, Salem made a quick disappearance with Government help. On June 26 The New York Times wrote "Neighbors at the Bretton Hall residential hotel at 2350 Broadway, where Mr. Salem lived, said they saw garbage from his apartment at the trash chute on Wednesday, including a telephone that looked as if it had been ripped from a wall, and pictures of his son and daughter." Salem's information had also helped derail 12 other targets, "including Grand Central terminal, the Empire State Building and Times Square," said officials. By now the entire cornice had been gone for years. The owners embarked on a renovation late in 2006 that initially called for reproducing the lost cornice. Architect John C. Calderón, however, found that "the cost was prohibitive." Instead he designed a parapet of red brick and cast stone in an effort to approximate the lower design. Despite the good intentions, it falls short of a design-completing cornice.

More than a century of changes did not affect the elaborate three-story Beaux Arts entrance.

The completed $1 million renovation resulted in 461 rental apartments. photographs by the author

Massive Mansion Where Mookie Betts Stayed in Massachusetts Is Up for Rent

Ralph Freso/Getty Images

When MLB All-Star Mookie Betts starred for the Boston Red Sox, he rented a luxury home in Newton, MA. After his off-season trade to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the home is now back up for rent. If you’re interested, the price is dependent on the length of the lease.

Built in 2015, the place where Betts once rested his head has six bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and over 7,500 square feet of living space.

The spacious foyer leads to the formal dining room on one side and the family room, breakfast area, kitchen, and living room on the other. The dining room has both a butler’s pantry and a spacious walk-in pantry.

A generous formal living room features a fireplace, and flawlessly flows into a home office/den, complete with a custom desk and floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves.

Thanks to the open floor plan, the family room, which can also serve as a breakfast room, is spacious and offers and an abundance of natural light. A gourmet kitchen comes with extensive counter and cabinet space, as well as a center island and breakfast bar.

Top-of-the-line appliances include a six-burner gas range/stove with vented hood and a massive Sub-Zero refrigerator. A wet bar nearby includes a beverage fridge and wine chiller.

Sliding glass doors open out on a huge outdoor back patio, which boasts a fireplace, a mounted flat-screen television, and a well-manicured garden.

On the second floor, the luxe owner’s suite is complete with a soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, separate water closet, double sinks and vanities, and a custom walk-in closet.

Other luxurious highlights of the mansion include a gym, a home theater with plenty of seating, and a hightop bar with stools.

In 2016, the slugging star and Tennessee native sold a modest townhouse in Nashville, TN, for $297,000. In 2017, Betts paid $1.25 million for 8.5 acres in Franklin, TN, where he’s in the process of building his dream home.

Betts, 27, is a four-time All-Star who made his major league debut in 2014. He won the MVP in 2018, and helped lead the Sox to a World Series title that season.

When a single season was left on his contract, the Red Sox traded the outfielder to the Dodgers in February. Whether he winds up ever suiting up for the Dodgers in a regular season game remains to be seen. He’s set to be a free agent this fall.

Christian Vázquez hit a tying home run off Seth Lugo in the seventh inning and a two-run single against Justin Wilson n a three-run eighth, rallying the Red Sox over the Mets 6-5 Wednesday night when New York’s bullpen could not hold a lead for the two-time Cy Young Award winner. At 108-year-old Fenway, with the major leagues' most cramped clubhouses, Red Sox players used luxury suites to get dressed for the past month instead of their regular locker room.

19 Best Kid-Friendly Family Vacations In America

Family life. It can be wonderful and exhausting in equal measure. That’s why The Great Family Vacation is so important—a time to make memories and celebrate your loved ones away from the pressures of daily life. Whether you’ve got a family of ten or two, here are the best family vacation ideas your kids will love, where boredom is banned and fun is king.

Best Vacation Ideas For Families

With so many great family-friendly destinations in the USA, it’s hard to narrow down to the cream of the crop. While we’ve left out a few of the obvious big-hitters like Orlando, Virginia Beach, San Diego, and Myrtle Beach, we’re featuring equally amazing spots, where the amenities for children are just as great and the welcome just as warm.

An added benefit? These top family vacation spots boast plenty of local rentals from FlipKey. Choose an entire house or apartment where you can all be together (while still having your own space). Swap the hotel mini-bar for a fully stocked kitchen and the communal lobby for a family living area—and maybe even a garden. Imagine an evening barbecue on the outdoor patio, a family movie night in the theater room, or a morning swim in your own private pool.

Ready for a fun-fueled family trip? Pack your sunblock, swimwear, and those all-important traveling snacks. Here are 19 of the best family vacation ideas in America for happy kids and even happier grown-ups.

Anaheim, California

“This home was perfect for young and old. Very close to Disneyland and shopping. The pool was the favorite for relaxing and cooling off. Very friendly owners.” — FlipKey Reviewer

The most obvious pull for children in sunny Anaheim is the mighty Disneyland Park—and who could blame them for begging to come here? Rides for all ages, well-known characters to meet, and all the color and excitement you’d expect from a larger-than-life Disney experience. If you’re looking for something on a smaller scale, book a pass to Adventure City. With rides, shows, and a mini train, it’s especially suited to younger children.

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

“We came to Gettysburg to visit history and were not disappointed. The house just made things very simple for us. Everything we needed was there. Great literature to assist us on our history tour. The house was clean and well kept. It was located very conveniently for touring all of Gettysburg.” — FlipKey Reviewer

Steeped in Civil War history, the picturesque town of Gettysburg makes a pleasant and educational base for families. Tour the Gettysburg Battlefield, the National Military Park, and the Shriver House Museum at your leisure, or hop on a guided bus tour of the town to get the expert lowdown on all the key sights. From historical re-enactments to ghostly tours, there’s so much here to keep the whole family entertained.

Boston, Massachusetts

“We regularly stay in rented accommodation rather than hotels when we go on holiday, and this is one of the best we’ve experienced. The house is very comfortable, and well furnished and equipped.” — FlipKey Reviewer

Boston has it all—the culture, the fantastic city parks, and a relaxed pace you might not expect in a city of its size. Baseball fanatics, young and not so young, will love Fenway Park, home of the Red Sox. You can take a guided tour, watch a game, and soak up some sporting history. Also check out the giant ocean tank at the New England Aquarium and board a Boston Duck Tour to be transported around this beautiful city on land and water.

Florida Space Coast

The vibe on the Florida Space Coast is, overall, beachy and relaxed, but a vacationer’s experience depends largely on the activity you choose. Of course, they don’t call it the “Space Coast” for nothing. The thrill of watching rockets launch from Cape Canaveral, whether up close or miles away, never gets old. In fact, launches still occur (SpaceX rockets are on the launch calendar for 2017). Kennedy Space Center unpacks space-centric surprises, from the earliest days of space exploration to the exciting Shuttle Launch Experience and behind-the-gates tours.

As for terra firma, beautiful Atlantic beaches await, along with wildlife at the Canaveral National Seashore, a beautiful barrier island National Park. And even if you’re not shipping out for a cruise, you and your family can marvel at large luxurious ships from Grills Seafood Deck, a family-friendly and casual venue.

Over in Cocoa Beach, you can sink your toes into the sand—but if you have teens, be sure to pop in for a ubiquitous (free!) sticker at Ron Jon’s massive surf shop. You may want to pick up a bikini or t-shirt while you’re at it, too.

Satellite Beach is a lesser-known but equally lovely section of the Atlantic coast. If you’re planning on visiting in June or July, you can enjoy sea turtle nesting season. Check in with the Sea Turtle Preservation Society for a guided tour. Once booked, you’ll be led out by expert guides equipped with the knowledge (and turtle-friendly lighting) to find mama turtles as they venture onshore to lay their eggs. Truly amazing!

Long Beach, California

“This adorable house was very comfortable and had every amenity needed for a family vacation. Everything was close by, from amazing restaurants to cute shops, and of course the beach. I was impressed at how quickly we were able to get to Disneyland and down the coast to Newport Beach.” — FlipKey Reviewer

Locals refer to Long Beach as one giant playground, so families are certainly welcome here. And there’s one place you really can’t miss. More than 11,000 creatures await you at the Aquarium of the Pacific—you can even touch and feed some of them. Learn about who lives in and around the oceans and the importance of conserving their environment. Long Beach also has lots of family-oriented places to eat and plenty of fun watery activities, including boat tours.

Washington, DC

Washington, DC is a vibrant city with dozens of free attractions and events that make it an ideal destination for a family vacation. Once you’re near the Mall, major landmarks and iconic government buildings are everywhere you look: the Capitol, the White House, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, and many more. Have your kids pull out their coins and dollar bills to see replicas of the very buildings they’re standing in front of. Book a line-skipping VIP tour and check them all off your list.

The internationally-renowned collections of the Smithsonian range from a 65-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton to the original “Star-Spangled Banner” to the space shuttle Discovery. The Einstein Planetarium at the Air and Space Museum offers a constant flow of illuminating, family-friendly entertainment. The airplane buffs in your family will be happy they made the trek to Dulles Airport for the Udvar-Hazy Center, an annex of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. It’s so large that the actual planes dangling from its ceiling look like toys.

The riverfront Nationals Park is a wholesome itinerary option for families who like major league baseball. Its neighborhood goes by many names at this point—Navy Yard, Ballpark District and Capitol Riverfront—but is easy to reach from any area of the city.

Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin

Billed as the Waterpark Capital of the World, Wisconsin Dells is an obvious choice for fun-seeking families. It’s hard to experience all the great attractions and activities here. Take your pick of indoor and outdoor adventures, such as Mt. Olympus Water and Theme Park, Noah’s Ark Waterpark, Timber Falls Adventure Park, Circus World, Timbavati Wildlife Park…the list goes on and on.

Durham, New York

Set in the Northern Catskills, where there’s lots of fresh air and space to run around, Durham makes a top family vacation base. Show your brood the best of the rural life on a tour with Farmer Frank of Hull-O Farms, where you’ll meet all sorts of friendly animals, including bunnies, piglets, and chicks. For something completely different, try the Zoom Flume Water Park, where you can rent a cabana and spend the day crashing into the water via various high-speed slides.

Winter Haven, Florida

Your child may be on his or her way to being a master builder—or not—but either way, few Florida destinations are as child-friendly as Winter Haven. That’s because of the incredible LEGOLAND. This child-centric haven is practically overflowing with Lego bricks. What’s more, every ride in the elevator is a strobe-infused opportunity to do a happy dance, and every room is themed—from pirates to knights to adventurers.

Steps away are Legoland’s theme park and waterpark. The theme park’s coasters, rides and Lego-centric sites keep the entertainment going nonstop. The waterpark’s lazy rivers, wave pools, slides, and other cooling spots offer a fun respite from the Florida heat.

Parents should note that although the LEGOLAND attractions are decidedly for youngsters, the ease with which you’ll be able to move from one to the next make it appealing for parents looking for recreation that’s a little more self-contained. As a bonus, you can also enjoy a tropical cocktail by the pool while watching your kiddos.

See all Winter Haven rentals from FlipKey!

Indianapolis, Indiana

Indy’s a pretty hospitable place. And if you’re visiting with children, there’s no better starting point than the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, the largest of its kind in the world. We challenge anyone to be bored in this place, where kids are encouraged to explore arts and culture through exhibits, workshops, and live performances—there’s even a steam engine. You might also like to see the animals and plant life at Indianapolis Zoo.

Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

This friendly place on the Atlantic Coast has a boardwalk packed with lively eateries. Families tend to favor Funland for its arcade games and vintage rides and Jungle Jim’s Water Park for water slides, go-karting and mini-golf. For a bit of calm before bedtime, you could head slightly north and take a Broadkill River cruise with Caper Water Tours and Taxi, taking in the peaceful views of the shoreline and its birdlife before the sun sets.

Williamsburg, Virginia

Colonial Williamsburg, the 301-acre, restored 18th-century capital city, is America’s largest interactive history museum. Its interpretive characters transport visiting families back in time, to the sound of beating drums and trilling fifes.

Virginia’s Historic Triangle extends to nearby Jamestown and Yorktown, where innovative exhibits and educational experiences depict America’s first permanent English colony and guide visitors through the battlefield where American independence was won. Merchants Square, an 18th-century-style village, includes more than 40 shops and restaurants ranging from family-style to fine dining.

The family-friendly Williamsburg area is also home to Busch Gardens, an action-packed, European-themed adventure park; Water Country USA, Virginia’s largest water park; and the York and James Rivers, where you can enjoy beautiful scenery and outdoor activities such as fishing, boating and swimming.

Sandusky, Ohio

Located on the southern edge of Lake Erie is chilled-out Sandusky. This place is home to the Cedar Point amusement park, which draws rollercoaster-crazy visitors each year. It’s mostly for the thrill-seekers, but there are also gentler options available for younger children. Alternatively, you can take jet skis out on the lake or enjoy a stroll with stunning views along the Sandusky Bay Pathway.

See all FlipKey rentals in Sandusky!

Bloomington, Minnesota

Book a comfortable family rental as your base for exploring the child-friendly delights of Bloomington. We recommend starting with Nickelodeon Universe, a fun-packed indoor park in the Mall of America, with everything from the tamest of rides to zip-lining adventures. If your children are on the younger side, this is a great place to spend a day. The Mall of America also provides all the shopping and eating opportunities you could hope for, plus an aquarium and adventure golf.

See all FlipKey rentals in the Bloomington/Minneapolis area!

Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Affordable and wholesome Pigeon Forge is adjacent to American’s favorite national park, Great Smoky Mountains. Most known for the Dollywood theme park, Pigeon Forge now also gets rave reviews for its Titanic Museum, an interactive walk through the doomed cruise ship. Teens will like assuming the persona of a historic passenger, only to find out their fate after visiting the eye-popping captain’s bridge.

Nighttime is perfect for The Island in Pigeon Forge, an entertainment hub with lighted water shows. Pleasant evenings also draw families to the area’s multiple mini-golf courses, including one in nearby Gatlinburg. Gatlinburg is also home to a surprisingly wonderful aquarium given its mountain location; penguins typically steal the show at Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies.

Your most difficult task will be choosing which of the dozens of family attractions to try, from a wax museum to a world records hall to dinner theaters, roller coasters and even “Goats on the Roof.” Nature will also be luring you to Smoky Mountain trails and overlooks, so no matter how many days you can spend in Pigeon Forge, they will all be full.

See all Pigeon Forge cabin rentals from FlipKey!

Carolina Beach & Kure Beach, North Carolina

Carolina Beach offers an old-style boardwalk, a laid-back atmosphere and absolutely tons of activities for families to enjoy together. Take advantage of the water sports and seaside amusement rides (and grab some donuts from Britt’s). A few minutes down the coastline is Kure Beach, where you’ll find Ocean Front Park, with its boardwalk, gardens and beach—there’s even a giant pirate ship to play on. Continue down to the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, which has some interactive exhibits and even an albino alligator.

See all FlipKey rentals in Carolina Beach/Kure Beach!

St. Augustine, Florida

St. Augustine’s picturesque and historic center appeals to all sorts of visitors. Many families come here for the St. Augustine Pirate and Treasure Museum, a fabulous swashbuckling resource offering interactive exhibits, treasure hunting, and more. For some outdoor fun, you could see the town on one of Ripley’s Red Trains, hit the play areas at Davenport Park or Project Swing Park, or turn towards the beach for a kids’ surf session.

See all FlipKey rentals in St. Augustine!

Charlotte, North Carolina

Charlotte’s Carowinds, a combination amusement park and waterpark, is a big hit with families. Weekdays offer shorter lines than weekends, and themed events are scheduled near year’s end. Young park-goers will discover mini-rides just for them, while teens will be thrilled with the likes of Intimidator and Fury 325. The park offers free water at multiple stations, but parents consistently recommend purchasing cups with free refills for the day. Count on $20 for parking, and budget extra for food, or consider at least one combo ticket, which includes food throughout the day.

Does your family thrive on challenges? Multiple escape rooms now pepper Charlotte, and near the intersection of the city’s two interstates, you’ll find Escape Kings. This family-friendly attraction lets those over 10 years of age test their collective wits by escaping from Aztec Ruins and Kings Quest rooms. The puzzle clues are for all ages, and escape is neither too hard for kids nor too easy for adults.

DefyGravity trampoline park is an appealing setting for energy-filled kids. Depending on their age, they can bounce their way through the KidJump, Ninja Obstacle Course, extreme dodgeball, foam pits, and even a trapeze.

Teens who like golf will love hanging out at Topgolf. Fun music adds to the excitement of golfing with a variety of provided clubs on a three-level driving range. Servers keep the food and drinks coming, while you rack up the points and have a few laughs. Charlotte—a major metroplex—has no shortage of other family-friendly restaurants at all price points.

Williams, Arizona

“We wanted to spend time at the Grand Canyon so I looked for a place that could accommodate all 9 of us (this included some children). Rather than rent numerous hotel rooms I decided it might be fun to all stay together in a house. The description of this house made it sound interesting and close to town so we chose it. Best decision ever!” — FlipKey Reviewer

Williams has all sorts of activities to make your vacation a memorable one. Watch a thrilling rodeo show, drive through graceful pine forests to spy on cute bear cubs and other fauna at Bearizona Wildlife Park, or take to the railroad and spend a day on the Grand Canyon Railway Adventure Package.
