The Boston Red Sox's seemingly ever-growing list of offseason infield targets has expanded yet again. Boston has been linked to nearly every top free agent and trade infielder on the market this winter, and it should be to improve upon its league-worst defense and streaky offense from last year.
Tim Healey and Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reported on December 9 that the Red Sox have had trade discussions about Ketel Marte, Corey Seager, Isaac Paredes and Brendan Donovan with their respective teams (subscription required). There have been rumblings that Boston was "in" on a few of these players before, but the Globe's report is the first local confirmation that the Sox have checked in with all of them.
