## Resource

The Boston Red Sox are struggling in 2026, with a subpar record and a team that seems ill-equipped to compete. Veteran baseball writer Bob Nightengale gives their season an F, suggesting they should be sellers at the trade deadline. Potential trade pieces include outfielder Jarren Duran, closer Aroldis Chapman, and others like Isaiah Kiner-Falefa and Sonny Gray. The front office must decide whether to rebuild for the future by trading away assets now. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
