Despite a high pitch count, James Paxton turned in yet another solid start (5.0 IP, 8 H, 1 R, 5 K) for the Red Sox on Saturday night in San Francisco.
It remains to be seen if the veteran lefty will log another start in a Red Sox uniform this season.
As noted in The Athletic, the Red Sox are still “considering” trading Adam Duvall and there has been some “debate” whether the team should move Paxton.
With the MLB trade deadline set for 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Chaim Bloom and the Red Sox have yet to declare if they’re going to be buyers or sellers.
