If the Boston Red Sox lose to the Detroit Tigers in the competition for Alex Bregman, a leading Red Sox blogger urges a trade for Detroit's Spencer Torkelson.

The Boston Red Sox are still on the lookout for a right-handed hitter, and there’s a risky option if all else fails. What’s proposed is the Sox would trade for Detroit Tigers first baseman and slugger Spencer Torkelson.

Alex Bregman is the most significant free agent still available, and he's expected to sign a contract worth over $200 million.

It went in the scorebook as an L-7, but Red Sox ownership should rewatch the at-bat and then get off the fence and sign Alex Bregman. Everyone remembers the situation. Bases loaded, Red Sox up 8-6, a shaky Craig Kimbrel trying to close out Game 4 of the 2018 American League Championship Series in Houston with David Price hastily warming.
