The Boston Red Sox found their ace in Garrett Crochet this year, after trading for him around this time last year. Now, they\u2019ve made some moves to finally get him some support in the rotation, but none of those moves are truly a No. 2 to back him up.<\/p>\n

Fansided\u2019s Cody Williams believes he has the perfect trade for a name that\u2019s been floated around as an option: Milwaukee Brewers All-Star Freddy Peralta.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile Boston has long looked like an obvious suitor for Peralta, the trade assets haven’t necessarily lined up perfectly for both them and Milwaukee\u2026Now, the Brewers still aren’t in need of outfield help, so to speak, but there is certainly room to upgrade over the likes of Jake Bauers, Garrett Mitchell or Blake Perkins, which Duran or Abreu would allow them to do. Furthermore, in typical fashion for Milwaukee, they could flip an asset they’re unlikely to be able to pay in Peralta for immediate major-league upgrades with plenty of club control at low cost and prospects that could help keep the ball rolling under Pat Murphy,\u201d Williams wrote.<\/p>\n

The trade would look like this:<\/p>\n

Red Sox get: RHP Freddy Peralta<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brewers get: OF Jarren Duran, SS Franklin Arias (No. 1 Prospect), RHP Juan Valera (No. 12 Prospect)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

MORE:\u00a0Mariners predicted to trade for $5.75 million All-Star, Gold Glove as amazing replacement for Jorge Polanco<\/strong><\/p>\n

Peralta posted a 17-6 record, a 2.70 ERA, 204 Ks, and a WHIP of 1.075 over 176 innings pitched last season. Combine him with Crochet, and the Sox have a World Series-contending-level rotation.<\/p>\n

The only problem with this is it\u2019s basically a one-year rental. Peralta\u2019s contract is up after this year, and he\u2019s projected to get a five-year, $152 million deal.<\/p>\n

The Sox have shown they don\u2019t believe in giving long-term contracts out to players over 30, and Peralta will be 30 in the upcoming season. Hopefully, the Sox make an exception, get uncomfortable like they said they would, and pursue this trade.<\/p>\n
