New York Post | Jon Heyman: Apparently the chase for Luis Castillo ahead of August 2nd’s trade deadline was a real one, although it seems the Reds were less interested in the Yankees’ offer than you might expect. The club offered top outfield prospect Jasson Domínguez as the headliner in a trade package, but balked at the inclusion of either Anthony Volpe or Oswald Peraza, and Cincy clearly prioritized the higher-ranked infielders.
Boston Globe | Peter Abraham: Andrew Benintendi made a second homecoming of sorts this weekend, returning to Fenway for the first time since being dealt to Kansas City over the winter.
