Red Sox Free Agent Target: Rich Hill

The simple part of the Red Sox offseason is determining needs. They need, for example, reinforcements in the rotation. It doesn’t exactly take a baseball genius to determine that as fact. What becomes more complex is exactly how they go about finding said reinforcements. Do they add one, or multiple? Do they focus solely on either free agency or trade, or look into both routes? Do they outlay significant money and/or prospects in the search, or go for more of a buy-low philosophy? Do they look for stability or upside? I think that last question is the one that interests me the most, though admittedly turning it into a binary situation is a bit over-simplistic.
