How do you improve the Red Sox?
Add another Ace to the rotation, another Ace to the Bullpen & a Left Hand Power Hitter to Left Field.
Espinoza for Archer
Benintendi for Miller
Moncada for Yelich

Yankees and Red Sox trade? That would never happen.

The amount of hypothetical trades that includes former red sox players coming back just completely proves how many bad moves they have made.

Maybe we could trade Allen Craig for Mickey Mouse.

Maybe we could trade Allen Craig for Mickey Mouse. Trade Craig for the Disney franchise? Disney says no way. But at least this trade proposal is more realistic than what I've seen thrown around. |

Wow! Very intriguing but I doubt the dodgers would do that. |

Espinoza has a few bad outings, and now everyone wants to trade him. I love Archer, but the Rays will never do that or the Yankees and I love Moncada too much. But I do like the Craig for Mickey Mouse trade, but they have to throw in Donald Duck as well.

I am not a fan of archer's or a fan of miller's so I am glad our divisional rivals would not trade them to us. Yelich though is very tempting for the right price. Ps: isn't Stanton in a world class slump? Hhhmmmm! |

People are underrating Yelich.
He's a 24 year old pure hitter who uses the whole field and has plus range for corner outfield. He's a lefty. He's going to compete for batting titles as is, and has huge power potential if he can sort out his swing plane a bit. Sound familiar? Oh, and he's under contract THROUGH 2021 with a 2022 team option. It will (and should) take more than just Moncada to trade for him.

We don't need Yelich for 6 years when we have Benintendi. And Moncada could be moved to the outfield as well.

The only reason the Red Sox wouldn't trade Moncada for Yelich is because the Marlins would not trade Yelich for Moncada. You can exchange Benintendi and Moncada's names and the statement is still true.

After last nights game, the talk on NESN, ect, there seems to be an unbelievable chemistry on this team with a good chunk of the roster coming up together through the minors. Guys getting to the park @ 2pm, working, talking baseball, Pedey talking trash. If I were DD I would almost fear disrupting at least the ML roster by trading/bringing in a piece @ the deadline that might not "gel".

The Yankees have traded with the Sox before. They were fine with it while they were fleecing the Sox, but the Mike Stanley-Armas Jr-flipped for Pedro deal soured them. Still, it's silly to imply that those two teams don't trade. They took Stephen Drew off our hands. That said, Benintendi for Andrew Miller is the single worst trade I've ever seen proposed on here (that wasn't tongue-in-cheek). What a gloriously horrible idea. A young, potential star-caliber five-tool CF for 2 1/2 years at market value for a reliever the team doesn't need. Espinoza-Archer I'd hate to see because I want to see Espinoza with the Sox, but that's almost impossible to turn down as Sox GM (and would get you fired in TB). Moncada-Yelich wouldn't fly with the Marlins. I'm OK with that because I think Moncada will be a better player, but in the real world Yelich would require more than Moncada. |

If we traded Benintendi for Miller it would legitimately ruin my year.

Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman (while amazing) would not be the type of relievers I would target. I'd go more after a Tyler Clippard type. I think we need a reliable 6th/7th inning guy and a workhorse that can appear in a lot of games more than someone that might want to close. I imagine the cost might be cheaper too.
