The Boston Red Sox are expected to explore trading for infielder Gleyber Torres ahead of the MLB trade deadline on August 1. This comes after Boston's recent attempts to boost its offense, including acquiring Curtis Mead, who has since gone on the injured list. With their resurgence in July, the Red Sox are shifting from sellers to buyers, highlighting their need for a consistent second base option. Torres, under contract with the Detroit Tigers, has struggled with injuries this season but is seen as a viable candidate to fill the gap left by Roman Anthony. The Tigers, sitting at 51-58, may consider trading Torres as they look to rebuild their farm system.
