Red Sox receive criticism for Adley Rutschman trade that doesn't make sense originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox swung a massive trade with the Baltimore Orioles for Adley Rutschman. Landing the All-Star catcher should be a huge help for the Red Sox in their postseason hunt against the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees for a better seeding.
However, Rutschman hasn't really been as good as he could be, as he's struggled a bit since coming over in the trade. That doesn't mean the Red Sox should be criticized for the deal.
But that's exactly what Dayn Perry of CBS Sports did, calling the Rutschman move a disappointing one. It was a premature ****** ysis, as Rutschman hasn't played nearly enough to warrant calling this move a disappointment.
"The Sox acquired Rutschman from the division-rival O's in order to upgrade the position of catcher, which has been a trouble spot for Boston all season," Perry writes. "Thus far, Rutschman has not delivered as hoped."
