| Chavis (L); Groome (R) (MLB.com) |
Miami Marlins owner
Derek Jeter is
still trying to pull a fast one on the Red Sox. Multiple reports indicate that the former Yankee made clear that
both 3B
Michael Chavis and P
Jay Groome would
not be enough to get Miami set-up man
Drew Steckenrider. Groome and Chavis are generally regarded as the #1 and #2 prospects in the Boston organization, respectively. Groome is out for the rest of 2018 after undergoing Tommy John surgery in May, and Chavis is just back from an 80-game PED suspension. While these events have tarnished the trade value of both, they are still regarded as prime "can't miss" prospects. Nice try, Jeets.
