There’s a growing sentiment in baseball that the Red Sox might trade either Jackie Bradley Jr., Rusney Castillo or Mookie Betts, according to Boston reporter Rob Bradford of WEEI (Nov. 12, 2015).
The Mariners, Royals, and Cubs have so far expressed interest in Bradley, who Bradford believes is the most likely to get dealt.
Bradley, 25, hit .249 with a .335 OBP and .498 SLG with 10 HR and 43 RBI in 74 games this past season for Boston.
According to multiple reports, the Mets may be in the market for a center field, either to take over full time or platoon with Juan Lagares.

Bradley is an incredible defensive outfielder. But, I’m not sold on his bat. He had one hot month and a crazy-high BABIP, but, aside from that, his 2015 was just an OK season at best. The Red Sox have been asking teams about their starting pitching, so I assume when talking to the Mets the same high-caliber names will get mentioned. The Mets have the need, but the this doesn’t feel like the makings of a strong fit. Betts, on the other hand, is great, but he’s also likely the last guy in the bunch that Boston will try to deal…
