According to
USAToday's
Bob Nightengale,
the Red Sox and Indians discussed a trade over the Winter that would have sent slugger
Edwin Encarnacion to Boston. The deal eventually fell through because
Dave Dombrowski did not want to part with
Jackie Bradley, Jr. However, according to Nightengale, with the
J.D. Martinez negotiations stalled, the trade talks with the Tribe might be resuscitated. In fact, the scribe goes on to speculate that Dombrowski may contact his old bosses in Detroit to pry away
Miguel Cabrera (offering to eat
as much as half of that slugger's remaining $192 million contract).
Yikes! Stay tuned—there could be a parrot or 'Miggy' sighting at Fenway Park.
