The injury to Marcelo Mayer makes it difficult for the Red Sox to trade from their major league outfield, which makes it harder to land one of the big fish. While it’s not impossible to go find a nice compliment to Garrett Crochet, they might be tempted to look on the bottom shelf for some reliable innings.
