Red Sox Eye Ketel Marte in Blockbuster Trade for Elite Bat

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte, a year removed from a third-place NL MVP finish in 2024, is a top trade target. The Boston Red Sox are reportedly interested in acquiring Marte to add an elite bat to their lineup. A proposed trade package from the Red Sox includes top prospects LHP Payton Tolle, INF Kristian Campbell, and SS Franklin Arias. Marte, who has six more seasons of club control, would command a significant return, providing the Diamondbacks with a strong prospect haul for both immediate and future roster improvements.
