The Boston Red Sox are going to be one of the more interesting teams in the American League to follow ahead of the trade deadline.

The Boston Red Sox are sitting with a 43-45 record, which means they may trade away an All-Star Most Valuable Player.

On a hot Fourth of July at Nationals Park, Giolito — along with a relentless Red Sox offense — led Boston to an 11-2 rout. The veteran starter continued a dominant stretch with his longest outing since 2021, allowing just a single run on four hits while striking out seven Nationals and pitching into the eighth inning.
