I would be very interested to know why? You have a surplus of OF. You would be getting back a young cost controlled SP with high upside and a 2B also with a high upside, plays great defence, young, cost controlled and is much better IMO than the 2B you currently have. If I am the Reds I offer someone else besides McLain as we don't have anyone to seriously replace him at 2B. At any rate just curious about your reasoning.
The Sox have so much starting pitching, that Lowder would be somewhere between 8-11 on the depth chart. Couple that with McLain doing nothing offensively to follow up on a promising rookie year, and being, at best, a nominal improvement over Romy at 2B, I don’t see the value in moving a guy with MVP upside, even if most of his ABs are likely to come at DH.
