No big baseball news

The Red Sox traded minor league infielder Blaze Jordan (excellent baseball name, by the way) to the Cardinals for a reliever named Steven Matz.

The Red Sox traded minor league outfielder James Tibbs and minor league outfielder Zach Ehrhard to the Dodgers for starting pitcher Dustin May.

I'm not sure how this gets them to the playoffs but then again, I have no idea what Steven Matz is capable of. I've seen Dustin May when the Red Sox faced the Dodgers and if I recall, he was okay.

I'm going to assume that Breslow knows way more about what the Red Sox need than I do and leave it at that...
