## Resource

The Red Sox are eyeing Luis Arraez at the trade deadline for his stellar hitting—batting over .300 with plenty of doubles and triples—but his near-zero power (less than 1% homers) could be a mismatch for a lineup desperate for pop. While he’d upgrade second base, Boston’s front office must weigh whether his contact skills outweigh the lack of home run threat—or if they should chase a power-hitting infielder instead. With multiple teams in the mix, Arraez’s destination will be crucial, but Boston’s move must fix both their batting average and their power woes to stay competitive.
