In a move that has sent shockwaves through the baseball world, Boston Red Sox bench coach Ramón Vázquez has orchestrated what many are calling the offseason’s most audacious coup. On November 20, 2025, just days after the conclusion of a grueling regular season, Vázquez—known for his steady hand and deep ties to the game—personally championed the acquisition of Los Angeles Dodgers ace Tyler Glasnow in a blockbuster trade that catapults the Red Sox into prime contention for the 2026 World Series. The deal, finalized in a whirlwind of late-night negotiations between Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman, sees Boston parting with a package headlined by outfield phenom Jarren Duran and two top prospects, while absorbing Glasnow’s massive contract. Fans at Fenway Park, still licking wounds from a heartbreaking Wild Card exit to the New York Yankees, are left buzzing with a mix of disbelief and unbridled excitement.
