The Boston Red Sox may look to trade Kristian Campbell, who has struggled in the minors since winning AL Rookie of the Month last April. Sources discuss a potential deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates that would send Campbell, along with cash, in exchange for Marcell Ozuna, Carmen Mlodzinski, and Termarr Johnson. The Red Sox sit at 33-46, 13 games under.500, which has prompted speculation about selling players this summer. Despite the trade talks, analysts argue that the 23-year-old Campbell retains significant potential that the Red Sox should hold onto.
