The Boston Red Sox have gone 28-5 since June 25, vaulting up to the second American League Wild Card spot. Despite their initial struggles, the team is now expected to be aggressive buyers ahead of the August 3 trade deadline.
Trade Deadline Moves
The Red Sox have already made one notable move, sending left-hander Connelly Early to the Washington Nationals in exchange for slugging infielder Curtis Mead. However, Mead suffered a broken wrist in his second plate appearance and will likely miss the rest of the regular season.
The team is looking to upgrade its infield, catcher position, and starting rotation. They have been linked to several top players, including Washington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams, Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto, and Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman.
