Every move they make is crucial this deadline, and if they mess up, they will not have a shot this season.Tommy Pham is having a decent season with the Cincinnati Reds this year. At the plate, he is batting .238, slugging .374, totaling out to a mediocre .694 OPS. However, Pham has speed and a good glove in the outfield.Chad Dotson@dotsoncGreat trade.

What they doing?4@TalkinJake @JeffPassan Bro all they do is trade away solid outfielders for mediocre ones. What they doing?Since Boston acquired an experienced player, Pham, it would only make sense to keep a player like Christian Vazquez. However, the Boston Red Sox shipped him off to Houston. He has been one of the best offensive catchers in the league, batting .282 with a .759 OPS. Which begs the question, why would the Red Sox do this?BallPark Buzz@BallParkBuzzThis move would have been lovely 3 weeks ago.

With multiple stars on expiring deals, accumulating wins is more important now than ever.The Boston Red Sox need to make a change quicklyMilwaukee Brewers v Boston Red SoxAt the start of the season, the Red Sox appeared to be a strong team in the American League East. Although not as good as the New York Yankees, they were still a great squad, competing against the best teams in baseball. They held second place in the AL East for an extended period of time.ALEJANDRO KIRK FAN CLUB@KirkFanClub@JeffPassan Lmao what are the Red Sox doing10@JeffPassan Lmao what are the Red Sox doingNow, however, the Red Sox look like a completely different team. They are now in last place in the AL East, even behind the Baltimore Orioles, who were less likely to be serious contenders this season.They are now under .500 and falling out of the playoff picture. If they continue to lack a sense of direction, the future of the Red Sox will remain bleak.
