The Boston Red Sox made a significant trade with their biggest rival, the New York Yankees, acquiring catcher Carlos Narvaez in exchange for pitching prospect Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz and international bonus pool space. Narvaez, who made his MLB debut last summer, is known for his solid defensive skills and ability to draw walks. While not as impactful as earlier acquisitions, Narvaez helps address the Red Sox’s need for catching depth, with Connor Wong previously the only catcher on the roster. Rodriguez-Cruz, a fourth-round draft pick in 2021, had a strong season in the minors before being traded. The addition of Narvaez gives the Red Sox more options at catcher, though his role could change if they bring in a more experienced player. This trade comes shortly after the Red Sox made their biggest move of the offseason, highlighting their commitment to improving their roster for the upcoming season.
