Miscellaneous
The Red Sox roll the dice in dealing top pitching prospect Anderson Espinonza away to the San Diego Padres in exchange for All-Star left-hander Drew Pomeranz. I examine if the Red Sox, who made their fourth trade in a seven-day span, made a short-sighted trade or if this move puts them over the top in the World Series chase as the club seeks a title in David Ortiz's final MLB season. Before I break down the blockbuster trade, I begin with a look at Tom Brady's decision not to appeal his four-game suspension to the Supreme Court.
