Last night, Dave Dombrowski made the first big offseason move for the Red Sox by trading Manuel Margot, Javier Guerra, Carlos Asuaje and Logan Allen for Craig Kimbrel. The deal shouldn’t come off as a surprise, since Dombrowski said a few weeks ago that he’s going to prioritize on pitching and a fourth outfielder. Even though Kimbrel is considered one of the best closers of the last few years, the trade upset a fair amount of Red Sox fans because Margot and Guerra were commonly described as some of the team’s best prospects and trading them for a RP and not a SP seems like a risky move.
