Red Sox Trade Idea Moves Jarren Duran to Blue Jays
Digest more
The Boston Red Sox could move Jarren Duran before the MLB trade deadline, but one insider isn't so sure the Sox will unload the outfielder.
After Mayer’s injury, the Red Sox recalled infielder David Hamilton, and though Hamilton will see some time at second, Rafaela’s offense has been too valuable to the lineup. Playing him at second and Duran in center makes the offense stronger. The moving parts have been a challenge for manager Alex Cora much of the season and even more so now.

Marcelo Mayer's injury is leading to a lot of moving parts for the Red Sox. It could also impact how Craig Breslow approaches next week's trade deadline.
Trade predictions are flying all over the place with the deadline approaching. One former general manager believes this three-team trade could benefit everyone.
Last summer, with a middle-infield prospect crunch, Breslow traded infielder Nick Yorke to Pittsburgh for starter Quinn Priester, whom he then traded to Milwaukee for an outfield prospect and a draft pick after the first round, which the Red Sox used to net right-hander Marcus Phillips this year.
The Boston Red Sox are named by MLB insiders as a potential landing spot for former aces Sandy Alcantara and Zac Gallen at the trade deadline.
The Sox throttled Cubs ace Shota Imanaga and homered four times to grab their sixth win in seven games, a stretch in which they've scored 61 runs.
