The Red Sox reunited with James Paxton after the left-hander was designated for assignment, and they struck a deal with the Toronto Blue Jays to acquire veteran catcher Danny Jansen.
ESPN's Bradford Doolittle gave a 'C-' grade for the acquisition of James Paxton due to concerns about decreased velocity and shaky command but was slightly more positive about the move for Danny Jansen, giving it a 'C+' grade.
Doolittle believes Danny Jansen will be an offensive upgrade due to his power swing and pull rate which align well with Fenway Park, where Jansen made an impressive debut against the Yankees.
