Brayan Bello Continues to Emerge in Trade Talks
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Brayan Bello continues to emerge in trade talks, according to Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Boston currently has a surplus of starting pitchers, with the signings of Ranger Suarez and Sonny Gray and the emergence of young arms like Payton Tolle and Connelly Early. Through the offseason, reports have suggested the Red Sox have also begun to "quietly" shop for the right-hander, indicating they have been looking for a suitor. The Red Sox were linked to several of the top free-agent third basemen but were unable to agree to terms with any. However, reports suggest they have also shown interest in Houston's Isaac Paredes, and Bello would likely be included in this package if both sides reached an agreement. Bello logged a career-high 166 2/3 innings with the Red Sox last season and held a 3.35 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP. If he were to remain in Boston, he would likely serve as the team's No. 4 starter.
