Red Sox eye trade for Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte despite poor season

The Boston Red Sox may target infielder Ketel Marte from the Arizona Diamondbacks as a trade option. Marte has struggled this season, but his potential contributions over the next few years could make him appealing to Boston. The Red Sox rank low in offensive production and have had underwhelming performances from infielders. Marte's versatility in playing multiple positions adds to his attractiveness as a target, although some analysts caution against trading for short-term gains at the deadline.
