The Boston Red Sox shipped Rafael Devers out of town because he refused to take accountability for his behavior this season, but one of the players they got in return, reliever Jordan Hicks, is pulling the same act after melting down on Monday.
The Boston Red Sox are in a position to add to their team in the coming days, but that does not mean they won't be willing to part ways with any of their current contributors.
The Red Sox will send Lucas Giolito to the mound. At 6-2 with a 3.97 ERA, Gioito has rebounded nicely after a poor first month. But the last two outings have resulted in some slippage, as he’s allowed nine earned runs over the last 9.1 innings.
Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow put lofty expectations on Jordan Hicks after the Rafael Devers trade. He's not quite lived up to the billing.
MLB insider Jim Callis believes the Boston Red Sox are going to let go of minor-league position players, while holding onto pitchers, at the trade deadline.
Jordan Hicks will be activated sometime in the next few days. He's excited to get back to work in the bullpen.
