The Boston Red Sox have a recent history of making trades with the New York Yankees, their longtime rival they didn't often swap with in the past. Fortunately for Boston, it also has a recent history of winning the trades.
The Red Sox have turned Garrett Whitlock into a late-inning machine, Alex Verdugo didn't pan out for New York, Richard Fitts was a solid rotation depth option until Boston spun him to the St. Louis Cardinals for Sonny Gray, and Carlos Narváez has grown into the Sox's everyday catcher in just one season. But the Yankees may finally have a winning trade of their own.
