Padres reportedly eyeing Red Sox outfielder Jaren Duran: Who else could Boston trade at the deadline?

Red Sox is Monday disappointing 29-32. It’s an 8 ½ game outside the east, despite only 3 ½ wildcard. For the front office it is a little too early to be a buyer or seller in front of the trading deadline, but it’s not too early for us. They could go well to the seller if they warm up in the next few weeks.

And then it’s Athletic Monday.

Because the defenders face the brilliant holes on the upcoming schedule, their list of targets again includes League sources reported by League sources. The defenders expressed interest before the 2024 season of Duran, before the veteran left Fielder Jurickson Profar and the FIELDER JACKSON MERRILL for the first time. Now, the unhearded red Sox team can consider Duran’s expense. Roman Roman Anthony remains alarming Boston, and the database of restless fans faces a sports consensus to arrive.

It would be very interesting if the red Sox hanged Duran. He last season was comprehensive and ended with Al MVP voting, he placed 8.7 war at the age of 27. This year he hits .264 / .312 /. He is still under the control of the team by 2028 and is not yet expensive, but next $ 8 million for a club before two years of arbitration).

The real sale on Duran would be last year last year, which was probably the year of his career, but if the red Sox was really able to move him now.

Who else could red Sox understand if they should end to choose this path?

I think the biggest and most fascinating name is Alex Bregman. He simply passed a long-term free agency before landing with the Red Sox on a three-year deal of creativity, but after this season it has an output. He was wounded right now, but while having his best season, perhaps even when he finished the second place with MVP voting, he said. If everything goes on this road, Bregman could be good for this trade season.

Looking at Pitching Staff, there are some more who who work as well.

Walker Buehler has a mutual version for $ 25 million in the next season, but more often than no they do not collect on one side or on the other side. He knocked around the last tour, but before that, he had a 2.56 era. He also confirmed feedback genealogy. Many candidates need to start pitching and will affect.

Lucas Giolito returned to Tommy John surgery and has a $ 14 million club for the next season, so it is tolerable for any trading team, looking for such a pitcher. He has been a mixed bag so far, but he gave up on one or no run in three of his last four. Maybe he can keep it because the deadline is close.

Aroldis Chapman was sold twice in his career twice and ended with a world series. Can this year be a hat trick? So far, in 24 seconds, it has been 32 strikes and 1.00 whip. We know that he can close, and he also succeeded in making it. He is a free agent after the season and the teams always want Bullpen to help, so he will definitely disappear if Red Sox is really sellers.

Another veteran batpen is Liam Hendrik, although he will not yet become his old identity from Tom John surgery. 14 In the afternight, he had 10 yearsly, but he was allowed to run multiple four in four appearance, giving him a 6.59 era in the season. However, it is time to put things together, and he has only $ 12 million in mutual options for the next season.

Finally, it is clear that Gareth Whitlock could also be resolved. He is controlled until 2028, but it is $ 7.5 million in salary next season and team options for 2027-28. He was a success as a starting and relite, although mostly in the latter. He becomes 29 years old on June 11.

To recover that Red Sox is obliged to sell and there is always a chance when they warm up and sit in the playoff position. So far, projects that give them a fair +235 chance to make the playoffs even. If the Red Sox themselves work in the position of sales, there are some names here that can move the needle for purchase.
