The article presents a game for readers to identify two real player transactions from the Boston Red Sox and one fake one. It outlines three players: Samuel Lilas, Karim Ayubi, and Natanael Yuten, detailing their ages, positions, origins, and poor performance statistics from the previous season. The goal is to engage readers and test their knowledge of minor league moves within the organization, encouraging them to guess the fake transaction without external research.
Transaction 1: Samuel Lilas, 19, a second baseman from Puerto Rico, was officially assigned to the team. He hit an inexplicable .200/.301/.302 last year at High-A Greenville.
Transaction 2: Right fielder Karim Ayubi, who played most recently at Salem, was officially assigned to the team. The Curaçao native, 21, hit a dreadful .224/.367/.265 in A-ball last year.
Transaction 3: Natanael Yuten, 20, from the Dominican Republic, was officially assigned to the team. A right fielder, he hit .234/.304/.380 at Salem last year.
