Red Sox consider trading catcher Connor Wong amid ongoing interest
Summary

The Boston Red Sox, currently struggling with a record eight games below.500, are actively exploring trade options for catcher Connor Wong. Reports indicate that Wong, in his role as the team’s third catcher, has drawn interest from several teams despite mixed performance metrics this season. At 30 years old, he is seen as a viable option for clubs needing help at catcher, particularly given his contract through 2028. The Red Sox appear poised to advance with Carlos Narvaez and Mickey Gasper as their primary catchers, potentially accelerating Wong's trade discussions in the coming weeks.
