Red Sox: Notable August waiver trades in franchise history

Related Topics: Boston Red Sox

Boston Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski made a few notable acquisitions at this year’s trade deadline. After acquiring Eduardo Nunez and Addison Reed, it’s possible that Dombrowski will still be in the trade market.

At this time of the year, most big-name players are unlikely to be traded. Instead of having the luxury of standard trading, they must now go through waivers. The waiver wire is a tricky process, but it hasn’t stopped the Red Sox from making moves at this time of the year in previous seasons.

This season, it’s possible that the Red Sox could still be in the market for a veteran power bat, or even a possible reliever.
