Former MLB GM believes Red Sox will likely trade Jarren Duran this offseason

Something’s got to give with the Red Sox’ logjam in the outfield this offseason.

With the arrival of rookie phenom Roman Anthony this past summer, the Red Sox will have to clear a spot in the outfield — a segment of the roster that is already occupied by Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela, and Wilyer Abreu.

And according to former MLB GM and current The Athletic staff writer Jim Bowden, the writing is on the wall that Duran could be on his way out of Boston at some point this winter.

In a post published Thursday that places a spotlight on 10 MLB players who are “most likely to be traded this offseason,” Bowden listed Duran as Boston’s most-likely trade chip.
