J.D. Martinez is preparing for the fact that his time with the Red Sox could be coming to an end.
On Thursday, when asked if he expects to be with the team after Tuesday’s trade deadline, Martinez didn’t mince words.
“Not if we don’t start winning. That’s about as simple as I can put it,” Martinez said. “I would understand it. I wouldn’t be upset about it. Of course I want to be here, stay here.”
After Saturday’s 9-4 loss to the Brewers, Martinez echoed those thoughts and reflected on his time with the organization.
