The Red Sox made one move on Thursday ahead of MLB’s trade deadline, acquiring righty pitcher Dustin May from the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for prospects James Tibbs III and Zach Ehrhard.
Tibbs was arguably the top prospect Boston acquired in the Rafael Devers trade to the Giants in June, batting .205 with a .589 OPS in 29 games for Double-A Portland at the time of Thursday’s trade.
With May, the Red Sox have acquired an intriguing arm to either slot into the back end of their rotation or potentially the bullpen.
