Happy Trade Deadline day! With many rumors going around, the Boston Red Sox have said they will listen to trade offers for outfielder Alex Verdugo. Will he realistically get moved? Gabby answers that question on today's episode of Locked On Red Sox.
Gabby also goes over Chaim Bloom's most notable trade deadline acquisitions in his tenure with the Red Sox so far, including Nick Pivetta, Kyle Schwarber, Eric Hosmer and Tommy Pham. What does Bloom's past trade deadline moves say about his likely approach this season?
When Boston shipped out outfielder Andrew Benintendi in 2021, they received a variety of players in return, including pitcher Grant Gambrell as a Player to be Named Later in the deal. Currently pitching for the AA Portland Sea Dogs, Gambrell was recently named Eastern League Pitcher of the Week. Gabby uses this information to send a message to Red Sox Nation to be patient with prospects, especially ones acquired in a trade.
