Hello all, been a while. Can someone tell me something about the guys the Sox got in the trade with Boston that aren't B. Mongomery and Teel? 

I haven't been paying attn to the Sox much. 

Meidroth is an IF (2B, mostly) who walks, has great contact rates, but not a lot of power. Wikelman Gonzalez can't seem to consistently throw strikes over long periods. Only Gonzalez is on the 40-man, so he could be looking at a bullpen spot. 

Fangraphs breakdown of the trade:

Trade difficult to assess.

Montgomery needs to play a full season.

Teel looks legitimate.

Meidroth is valuable only if he is better than Sosa, which no none knows.

Gonzalez has not shown that he belongs in MLB.

Crochet, if healthy, figures to win a lot of games for Boston and prob lead the league in K's in 2025. My prediction is that the only way this trade works is if Montgomery blossoms into a legitimate starting outfielder.
