According to multiple reports,
the Red Sox are one of three teams interested in acquiring Brewers reliever Francisco Rodriguez (AKA K-Rod). Although the conventional wisdom is that K-Rod is a shell of his former dominant self, he has compiled an impressive record in 2013 (1.09 ERA, 25 appearances, 10 for 10 in saves). Reportedly, the Dodgers and Tigers are also in on the right-hander—although the Red Sox probably have the best batch of mid-level prospects to offer Milwaukee. The Red Sox bullpen has been devastated, with the loss of
two closers (
Andrew Bailey and
Joel Hanrahan) along with lefty specialist
Andrew Miller and the disappearance into the
Reliever Protection Program of
Daniel Bard. Paging
Alfredo Aceves!
