Red Sox considering trade of Kristian Campbell to Pirates this summer
Summary

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.
