Trading him wouldn\u2019t make any sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><b>Garrett Crochet<\/b>: Even if healthy, Crochet would not be a trade candidate. The lefthander is signed through 2031 and is arguably the most important player on the roster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>But he\u2019s not healthy, and his shoulder injury has grown increasingly worrisome given the setbacks. What was initially termed \u201cinflammation\u201d has led to a lat strain, and Crochet was shut down from throwing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Crochet didn\u2019t pitch well in spring training, and three of his six starts once the season started were shaky. The Red Sox are notorious for underplaying injuries, and it feels like there is more going on with Crochet than what has been said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The last time he pitched was the last game <b>Alex Cora<\/b> managed. That\u2019s how long ago it was.<\/span><\/p>\n<div><span>Related<span>: <\/span><\/span>Brayan Bello\u2019s struggles as a starter made it impossible for him to stay in the Red Sox rotation<\/div>\n<p><span><b>Connelly Early<\/b> and <b>Payton Tolle<\/b>: Along with Crochet, they\u2019re the backbone of what the Red Sox envision their rotation to look like for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Yes, the Sox have proven they can develop starters. But Early (3.05 ERA in 16 major league starts) and Tolle (3.25\/15 appearances) have proven they can succeed at the highest level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><b>Wilyer Abreu<\/b> and <b>Ceddanne Rafaela<\/b>: What Early and Tolle are to the rotation, Abreu and Rafaela are to the outfield. They\u2019re building blocks for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In Abreu, the Sox have a productive two-way player who rarely needs a day off and has a low-maintenance personality. He turns 27 later this month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The 25-year-old Rafaela is a younger version of the same model. Durable, valuable on both sides of the ball, and just wants to play. He\u2019s also under team control through 2032.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Beyond those six players, back up the truck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It\u2019s highly unlikely the Red Sox would trade lefthander <b>Ranger Suarez<\/b>. But the starter\u2019s not somebody you would refuse to discuss. The same is true for <b>Willson Contreras<\/b>.

The timing is right to move him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><b>Aroldis Chapman<\/b> will be the most coveted reliever on the market the second the Sox make him available. <b>Garrett Whitlock<\/b> will be in demand, too, assuming he pitches well once he returns from the injured list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><b>Jovani Mor\u00e1n<\/b>, <b>Justin Slaten<\/b>, <b>Greg Weissert<\/b>, and any other reliever should be on the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Kiner-Falefa\u2019s infield versatility and 21 games of postseason experience should bring back a prospect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Selling low on infielders <b>Caleb Durbin <\/b>and <b>Marcelo Mayer<\/b>, or catcher <b>Carlos Narv\u00e1ez<\/b>, wouldn\u2019t seem to make much sense.

Here\u2019s a closer look.<\/div>\n<p><span>The best teams balance data with the input of people closest to the game on the ground. That was something the Sox did when they were consistently successful and abandoned <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>A few other observations on the Red Sox:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Counting the postseason, the Red Sox were 2-11 in the last 13 games <b>Brayan Bello<\/b> appeared in before he was demoted to Triple-A. He had a 6.39 ERA in those games.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Immaturity is his biggest problem, not mechanics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Bello disrespectfully waved off Narv\u00e1ez during his first-inning meltdown against the Orioles on Thursday. Then he lectured reporters after the game, telling them not to ask him whether he should be a starter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In short, Bello gets rattled easily, and it affects how he pitches. The six-year, $55 million extension Breslow signed him to before the 2024 season is not looking very good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Chapman hasn\u2019t pitched very often the last few weeks. But he watches plenty of baseball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI like what Milwaukee is doing,\u201d he said. \u201c[Starter <b>Jacob<\/b>] <b>Misiorowski<\/b> has good mechanics. He throws hard because he throws with his body, not just his arm.

He averages tick under 99 miles per hour with his fastball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cHe\u2019s nasty,\u201d Chapman said. \u201cThat\u2019s it, nasty.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 Just spitballing here, but what would be the downside for the Red Sox or Orioles by trading Yoshida straight up for <b>Tyler O\u2019Neill<\/b>? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Both are signed through 2027. Yoshida turns 33 in July and has roughly $26 million remaining on his contract. O\u2019Neill turns 31 later this month and has $23 million left.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>O\u2019Neill had a career .813 OPS in 59 games at Fenway Park and played pretty well for the Sox in 2024. He has been terrible for the Orioles the last two seasons \u2014 .185 with a .618 OPS \u2014 and he\u2019s often injured. But he would give the Sox at least some hope of righthanded power, and he\u2019s a decent outfielder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Yoshida has 1.118 OPS in 14 games at Camden Yards and badly needs a change of scenery. Once Anthony returns, his at-bats are going to dry up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>A trade beats the alternative of releasing them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 In Narv\u00e1ez, Contreras, Kiner-Falefa, <b>Mickey Gasper<\/b>, and <b>Connor Wong<\/b>, the Sox are carrying five players who have at least 26 games of major league experience as a catcher. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u22c5 <b>Chase Nixon<\/b>, <b>Trot\u2019s<\/b> son, has joined the High Point Rockers of the Atlantic League, hoping to catch on with a major league organization.

Albernaz was a backup catcher in the minors from 2006-14, spending all but one season with the Rays organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Tampa Bay hired him as a minor league hitting coach in 2016. That led to managing in the Rays system, then a four-year stint with the Giants as their bullpen coach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Albernaz interviewed for a position on the Red Sox\u2019s major league coaching staff before the 2024 season. But he withdrew his name from consideration to take a position on the Guardians\u2019 staff when his good friend <b>Stephen Vogt<\/b> became manager.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The hiring in Cleveland was initially as field coordinator.

The Dobbins family inadvertently made news a year ago when Hunter said he would rather retire than play for the Yankees because the team drafted his father twice and traded him to the Diamondbacks.
