The Boston Red Sox are exploring trade options for Houston Astros star Yordan Álvarez. With Álvarez performing well this season, batting.301 with 20 home runs and an OPS of 1.050, the Red Sox see him as a crucial addition to help address their early-season struggles. A proposed trade would send outfielder Jarren Duran and two top prospects, Franklin Arias and Anthony Eyanson, to the Astros. While this trade could help the Red Sox, the Astros are not under pressure to deal Álvarez, which may complicate negotiations.
