This offseason could be huge for the team. The Red Sox will have to figure out what happens with Alex Bregman&#8217;s contract, but they could be in the market for another superstar to round out their roster.<\/p>\n<p>MLB Network recently floated the idea\u00a0of the Atlanta Braves trading Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. He could be the type of player who helps the Red Sox take the next step.\u00a0BALLCAP Sports&#8217; Jim Riley proposed\u00a0this trade that would bring Acu\u00f1a to the Red Sox:<\/p>\n<p>The return for Acu\u00f1a may seem light, but Riley mentioned that it is still an overpay for the Red Sox,\u00a0according to Baseball Trade Values. The Red Sox outfield is already crowded, so it would make sense that one of their young outfielders would have to go in order to make this happen.<\/p>\n<p>Riley&#8217;s proposal also sees Roman Anthony handling more designated hitter duties so that Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela and Acu\u00f1a can man the outfield. Considering how good Acu\u00f1a is, his contract is quite team-friendly for the next three years.<\/p>\n<p>A group of Garrett Crochet, Anthony, Bregman and Acu\u00f1a could help carry the Red Sox to a World Series. In addition to them, young players like Marcelo Mayer and Rafaela would be solid complementary pieces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Boston Red Sox have a solid young core, highlighted by Roman Anthony.
