Trade Rumor: Red Sox have interest in Wilmer Flores, Asdrubal Cabrera, T.J. Rivera

The Red Sox are looking to acquire a third baseman and have interest in Mets infielders Wilmer Flores, Asdrubal Cabrera and T.J. Rivera, according to Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports.

The Sox have also recently been linked in rumor to Martin Prado (Marlins), Jed Lowrie (A's), Yangervis Solarte (Padres), and Josh Harrison (Pirates).

Matthew Cerrone: I can't see Alderson trading Rivera, who isn't a great fit for Boston's short- and long-term goals at third. Alderson's front office seems to really appreciate Rivera, who they're finally giving a chance to play so they can better understand how he fits in to their plan going forward.
