As usual, the Boston Red Sox have been connected with a number of players on the trade market this year. One name that has sprouted up pretty frequently is that of Baltimore Orioles reliever Zach Britton. It seems pretty likely that the left-hander is going to be dealt before the trade deadline, what with the Orioles already trading away face-of-the-franchise shortstop Manny Machado right after the All Star break. That move, paired with an absolute abysmal season for the team as a whole, should signal that times are going to be tough in Baltimore for the next few years, if not longer.
