The Washington Nationals infielder was considered one of the top prizes of the recently passed MLB trade deadline, but the Nationals ended up keeping the two-time All-Star as they sold off several other pieces.
Axisa named the Red Sox as well as the Pittsburgh Pirates and Atlanta Braves as potential suitors, but noted it would not come cheap.
The Red Sox are solidly in the playoff picture in the American League and within striking distance of the Tampa Bay Rays for the division lead.
Red Sox Could Look at Other TargetsAxisa believes the Red Sox will keep busy adding talent in the winter, naming them as another candidate to land Angels shortstop Zach Neto.
The Angels, like the Nationals, were sellers at this season’s trade deadline, and Axisa believes they’ll have more assets to shed in the winter.
