Could the Boston Red Sox add the veteran starter to fill in for Garrett Whitlock? A move could make a lot of sense.
Boston currently is 27-27 on the season but should get even better soon as it gets healthier. The Red Sox should get Triston Casas and Masataka Yoshida back in the not-so-distant future to help the offense and other reinforcements also will be working their way back to the field.
Although the Red Sox currently are just a .500 team, they should be better soon and certainly could compete for a playoff spot. Adding around the Boston recently lost starter Garrett Whitlock to an elbow injury and could use another hurler to add more depth. One player who could make a lot of sense is New York Mets starter Sean Manaea. He has been solid so far for the Mets but could be moved and
"He's pitching on a one-plus-one contract -- $14.5 million for this year, plus a player option for 2025 -- and the way he has been performing , the left-hander could benefit from another pass through free agency," Olney said. "Like , he could be coveted in a thin market of starters." Manaea has been a stud so far this season for New York and has a 3.16 ERA and 47-to-22 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 51 1/3 innings pitched. If Boston can remain in contention for an American League Wild Card spot this summer, a deal for Manaea could make a lot of sense.Patrick McAvoy's experiences include local and national sports coverage at the New England Sports Network with a focus on baseball and basketball.
