Slugger Eugenio Suárez and the Cincinnati Reds are in agreement on a one-year, $15 million contract that includes a mutual option for the 2027 season, sources tell ESPN. The best bat left on the market goes to Cincinnati, where he's expected to get most of his at-bats at DH.
Trade news: The Chicago White Sox are acquiring veteran right-hander Jordan Hicks and right-handed pitching prospect David Sandlin in a trade with the Boston Red Sox, sources tell ESPN.
@gwanders@BostonTBA@tylermilliken_ I think as a whole the fan base is just tired of watching the Red Sox seem non committal to winning on the surface. The trade deadline last year was a disaster, and the Devers trade got us basically nothing of value and saddled us with Jordan hicks for 2 more years
@BostonTBA@tylermilliken_ I mean, for decades the entire fanbase had the same passion as Tyler. It's just really gone to shit since 2019. Quarter billion dollar free agent contracts or bust. That's all the fans care about nowadays. It's so tired.

The Red Sox and Diamondbacks have discussed a potential Ketel Marte trade, including exchanging names, per @Sean_McAdam
The Diamondbacks continue to seek controllable starting pitching in return.
@Shotty442122@alecsarno8@KutterIsKing No one said we think we are getting Skenes, Skubal, Tucker lmao. Your fan base is the only one that thinks every team wants all your bum ass prospects for elite players
Alex Cora tells the media that Garrett Whitlock will be available after throwing a season-high 47 pitches last night.
Brayan Bello will also be an option after throwing only 28 pitches in yesterday’s start.
All hands on deck for this one.
The bad news: the Red Sox didn’t clinch a postseason berth today.
The good news: for the Red Sox to miss the playoffs, they would have to get swept by the Tigers, the Astros would have to sweep the Angels, and the Guardians would have to take at least 2/3 from the Rangers.
@MasonYKB@Humble_Ty19 How about we normalize not talking shit about the top .01% of athletes for not being top .001% especially when we’re sitting on the couch watching them play.
Trevor Story: "We feel like we haven’t been playing our best brand of baseball. It’s as simple as that. And we have the mindset we’re going to be playing for a month after this, so we’re not just trying to limp in. I think that’s a trap in itself."
