"Jeff asks: I know early season trades are rare, but do you think the Red Sox would be willing to trade Chapman sooner than later? He's having a great start to the season and not a whole lot of games to save in Boston. What do you think the Red Sox would want back?"
The Astros’ outlook is tied to Correa’s season-ending injury, with a potential sell-off focused on keeping Alvarez. Josh Hader’s trade value is shaped by his left shoulder capsule strain, current placement on the 60-day injured list, and eligibility to return on May 24. He has made three scoreless relief appearances, including sinker velocity in the 94–95 mph range. At the deadline, he is projected to be owed just under $45 million through 2028 and has a full no-trade clause, limiting trade flexibility. Questions also consider whether Boston would trade Aroldis Chapman early, what they would demand in return, and which closers could be most valuable at the deadline.
