Braves interested in trading for Red Sox pitcher Sonny Gray

The Atlanta Braves have shown interest in Boston Red Sox pitcher Sonny Gray as the MLB trade deadline approaches. The Braves, leading the NL East by just three games, are looking to strengthen their rotation after a poor 8-17 performance in recent weeks. Gray, 36, has excelled with a 10-1 record and a 2.61 ERA this season. The Red Sox, currently six games under.500 and out of playoff contention, might consider moving Gray if they continue to struggle. He has a no-trade clause but could be a fit for Atlanta if waived.
