News Summary

• The Red Sox made what will hopefully be a rotation upgrade with this week’s trade for Sonny Gray.
• Gray has been one of the most consistent and reliable starting pitchers in baseball for most of the past decade.
• The Red Sox are now developing legitimate big-league starters rather than rebuilding a farm system that perennially struggled in this area.
• The least likely trade candidate is Brayan Bello, who is as untradeable as a player without a no-trade clause can be, according to MLB.com.
