In a potential super-blockbuster for the trio of multi-time All-Stars, top-10 prospects Ryan Clifford and/or Drew Gilbert may have to be included. As well as Triple-A right-hander Nolan McLean. However, elite prospects like Jett Williams, Brandon Sproat, and Jonah Tong will be untouchable in such a trade.

The Boston Red Sox rotation, outside of Garrett Crochet, has been a letdown. The team could address its need at the trade deadline.
