Many teams that hope for an post-season race in the fall will seek a launcher starting before the MLB trade deadline. The players will be in motion, and an initiate of the MLB predicts that an old Houston Astro will remain in the American League to strengthen a competitor.
After the first half of the first half of the 2025 season, the Boston Red Sox are three games from the first place in Al East. However, an area that Boston could seek to improve is its start -up.

The Red Sox have Garrett Crochet like their guy n ° 1, but if they want to hit their ticket for the playoffs, they will have to shape the starting rotation behind him. The signature of Walker Buehler This last off -season did not work for Boston, the former Dodger launcher of Los Angeles displaying an MPM of 6.12.

While speaking on Fox Sports, the initiate of the MLB, Ken Rosenthal, said that the Red Sox, who are on a sequence of victories of 10 games, probably do not need to target a launcher n ° 2 to form a duo with hook. In addition, Rosenthal predicts that the Red Sox will seek to bring the manager Alex Cora with the veteran leaving for the launcher Charlie Morton, who spent two seasons with the Astros.
“”[Boston are] Only three games in Al East, and a few weeks ago, things could have looked differently in terms of what they needed, “said Rosenthal.

“And I’m going to give you a name that could be interesting for them: Charlie Morton. Horrible start to the season, but in his last 59 rounds, 3.05 Era. He and Alex Cora know Houston, 2017, so a starting launcher is clearly something they need.”
After a first half full of drama, Boston will look for a much more fluid second half and one that ends with them hitting their tickets for the playoffs.
