According to <strong>Zachary Rymer of Bleacher Report<\/strong>, these three teams could put together intriguing offers:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>New York Mets:<\/strong> The Red Sox receive <strong>Starling Marte, top prospect Brandon Sproat (Mets No. 1), and Drew Gilbert (Mets No. 7)<\/strong> in exchange for Rafael Devers. This deal would provide salary relief and young talent, but would Boston be giving up too much for an uncertain return?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Los Angeles Dodgers:<\/strong> The Dodgers, already stacked with talent, could land Devers in exchange for <strong>Max Muncy, Chris Taylor, right-hander Bobby Miller, and infield prospect Alex Freeland (Dodgers No. 4).<\/strong> Miller, a promising young arm, could be a key factor in the deal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chicago Cubs:<\/strong> The Cubs have long been linked to Bregman, but if they turn their attention to Devers, they could offer <strong>Seiya Suzuki and catcher Moises Ballesteros (Cubs No. 3 prospect)<\/strong>. Suzuki would provide an offensive boost, and Ballesteros could be Boston&rsquo;s long-term solution behind the plate.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Trading Devers would be a massive shake-up for Boston, especially after signing Bregman and signaling their intent to compete. But maybe the best move isn&rsquo;t a move at all.<\/p><p>For all the speculation, the simplest solution might be to leave Devers where he wants to be &ndash; at third base, in a Red Sox uniform, and happy. After all, a motivated Devers in Boston&rsquo;s lineup might be worth more than any trade return.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who will cave first?
