Summary
The Red Sox pull off a surprise trade, sending struggling lefty Connelly Early to the Nationals for power-hitting infielder Curtis Mead—expected to debut Sunday and slot into the top half of the lineup. While the move shakes the clubhouse, especially for Tolle, who initially doubted the news, the front office sees Mead as a game-changing addition with real staying power. Early’s departure stings, but the game moves on—with Tolle already reaching out to wish his friend well, even if they might cross paths on the field.
