Padres Trade:
SP Roansy Contreras (P-2025) 500k
Red Sox Trade:
MI Temarr Johnson PC
SP Chris Paddack SP (2026) $5.5M
Boston makes this trade to open up cap space, but also are rolling the dice on Contreras, I like his ceiling as a mid rotation starter. It hurts to let Temarr go, but he is most likely to debut next season and Boston is looking for more immediate contributions.
