The Boston Red Sox reportedly offered the Minnesota Twins "multiple" top-100 MLB prospects for starting pitcher Joe Ryan, per WEEI's Rob Bradford.

The Red Sox still have a logjam of outfielders after keeping everyone including Duran and Abreu, despite Duran’s name being floated in numerous trade rumors. They failed to get an impact starter, didn’t acquire a bat and didn’t address the hole at first base, but Breslow remains confident with the team he has.

Boston came away from the Thursday deadline with just two new players, both pitchers on expiring contracts. Steven Matz and Dustin May were additions on the margins, but the Red Sox had something much bigger on the docket that they couldn't push over the goal line.
