The Red Sox were in an advantageous position, as far as these things go, at the trade deadline as one of the few obvious sellers in a market full of buyers. They didn’t go all-in there and traded role players rather than stars, but they still overall did very well. In total, Boston received six players in those deals, of whom we know five. The Josh Osich trade is still technically for a player to be named later, although the two sides have already agreed on the player coming to Boston.
Of the five players we know, I think there’s a pretty fair argument that Pivetta is set up to be the worst of them, or at least the least exciting.
