The Red Sox showed interest in trading for Twins pitcher Joe Ryan but failed to make a compelling offer. Reports indicate that negotiations stalled because Boston was unwilling to part with their major league outfielders and did not present an attractive enough package of prospects. Despite some reports suggesting Boston was close to a deal, others clarified that the talks were minimal and ultimately unsuccessful. Boston's front office purportedly hesitated to trade players like Jarren Duran and Wilyer Abreu, leading to the breakdown in discussions.
Talks fell apart when the Red Sox were unwilling to offer any of their big league outfielders, or an enticing enough package of their top-tier prospects.
According to league sources briefed on discussions from the Twins' side, talks fell apart when the Red Sox were unwilling to offer any of their big league outfielders.
My understanding is any talks with the Twins were feeble at best.
Regardless, it's evident that whatever the Red Sox' best offer for Minnesota wasn't good enough to swap for Ryan.
