The Boston Red Sox could be giving a call to the Oakland Athletics before the trade deadline about their left-handed starter.
The Boston Red Sox could be trading for a good starting pitcher next week instead of a great one, which would be a wise move for chief baseball officer Craig Breslow.
Rather, Breslow should be looking to build sustainability. Hemorrhaging draft capital for a premature title chase isn’t the move, but there’s also a delicate balance to the art of remaining competitive over the next few months. Failure to make the playoffs would be seen as a disappointing end to Boston's upstart season. Consequently, the Red Sox should be buyers over the next 10 days.
“Young Chicago White Sox starter Garrett Crochet figures to be on the move but the Red Sox would almost certainly have to part with one, or maybe even two, of their top three prospects in Marcelo Mayer, Kyle Teel and Roman Anthony,” McCaffrey said. “Crochet has been dominant but doesn’t have the veteran pedigree the team could use. Other starters on the market include … left-handers JP Sears and Tyler Anderson .
