The Boston Red Sox are eyeing an early move ahead of the trade deadline following rumors involving outfielder Jarren Duran.

The San Diego Padres would love to make a deal for the Red Sox outfielder. But they don't seem to represent a good fit.

The Boston Red Sox suffered another defeat on Monday, driving the team deeper into a losing record and underscoring some bigger questions facing the franchise. As the team continues to underperform, it seems increasingly likely that the front office will opt to trade away the players it can at the midseason deadline and retool toward contention in the near future.
