The Boston Red Sox could use some help in the rotation and one veteran could be available at the trade deadline.
Boston has floated around .500 this season but is starting to get healthier and has a chance to get back on track now. The Red Sox currently are one game below .500 but have a real shot at competing for a playoff spot this season.rather than subtracting. One player who could make a lot of sense for the club in that case would be Colorado Rockies pitcher Cal Quantrill.
"Colorado having not one, but two legitimate trade candidates in its starting rotation just might be history in the making. Neither nor Quantrill gets many strikeouts, but they've been done a great job of keeping damage to a minimum, with Quantrill recently reeling off eight quality starts in the span of nine outings.
"And at least with Quantrill, we know from his previous work in Cleveland that he can be a middle-of-the-rotation starter. We'll see if Gomber can keep it up until the deadline, though it's nice to see one of the pieces of the Nolan Arenado trade finally amounting to something." Quantrill has a 3.30 ERA and 56-to-30 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 79 innings pitched so far this season for Colorado. He won't be a free agent until 2026.
