Red Sox Near $12M Deal for Slugger Santana amid Lineup Power Boost
The Boston Red Sox have faced challenges at first base following Triston Casas's season-ending injury and the trade of Rafael Devers, leading them to explore various options including Abraham Toro, Romy González, Kristian Campbell, and even Masataka Yoshida taking grounders at first base during his rehab. USA Today Sports' Bob Nightengale suggested that acquiring Cleveland Guardians slugger Carlos Santana, who is expected to be traded soon, could address the Red Sox's need for power at first base. Meanwhile, the Red Sox's pitching rotation has seen improvement, with Lucas Giolito emerging as a strong No. 2 starter behind Garrett Crochet, boasting a 0.83 ERA over his last five starts. Offensively, the team is experiencing a resurgence, scoring double-digit runs in several recent games and benefiting from strong performances by Trevor Story and other young players, helping to mitigate the impact of losing Devers. Additionally, the potential return of key players like Alex Bregman and Masataka Yoshida from injury could provide a significant power boost to the lineup in the near future. Overall, the Red Sox are actively adjusting both their lineup and pitching staff to regain competitiveness this season.
