ESPN mock trade completely undervalues Wilyer Abreu in Red Sox–Mets proposal

The offseason is coming to a close, and the Boston Red Sox finally finished. The front office did its best to replace Alex Bregman with Willson Contreras and Caleb Durbin — we'll have to wait and see how that pans out.

Rumors swirled all offseason about Boston trading one of their outfielders. Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela, and Wilyer Abreu have all been mentioned in mock trades this winter. ESPN's Dave Schoenfield proposed using one to upgrade the infield.

In his "MLB trade proposals that could shake up spring training" article, Schoenfield mocked a straight swap between the Sox and Mets of Abreu for Brett Baty, but the Sox should be pushing for way more if Abreu is part of their price.
