The Boston Red Sox are exploring the possibility of trading for a right-handed bat, as reported by Buster Olney of ESPN, with the front office open to spending money on a deal. Roman Anthony’s ongoing absence due to a finger injury has exacerbated the team’s power struggles, and Trevor Story is also expected to miss 8-12 weeks following surgery. Currently, Boston has the lowest home run total in the AL and ranks poorly in slugging percentage and wRC+. The Red Sox sit last in the AL East with a record of 26-34.
