An intriguing battle of wills might be brewing, and if the Houston Astros play their hand correctly, they might be able to cash in big time. USA Today's Bob Nightengale reported that the Boston Red Sox, fresh off their acquisition of Curtis Mead, are still hunting right-handed bats. Shortstop is their top priority, and Nightengale states that Jeremy Peña and Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto are their top targets. That could have the Astros following the same blueprint they used with Kyle Tucker and trade Peña over the winter. The Red Sox have been searching for a shortstop, in a market notably thin in shortstops.
