We spent the better part of the last month looking at Red Sox trade targets as we led up to the traditional trade deadline last Tuesday. Well, that day came and went and while the Red Sox made three (very good) moves, they didn’t address the bullpen. This was always assumed to be the one area they would definitely improve, but they opted against it. I already wrote about why that’s not as big of a deal as many are making it out to be, and one of those reasons is the August trading period. Yes, for those that don’t know, the Red Sox can still make trades after July 31 has passed.
