The Boston Red Sox find themselves in a unique situation with an abundance of young, talented position players, primarily left-handed hitters. This creates challenges in managing playing time and matchups against left-handed pitchers.

As they consider trading one of their stars to bolster their starting pitching, Wilyer Abreu emerges as the likely candidate. Despite his impressive rookie season and Gold Glove recognition, his platoon issues against lefties make him a potential trade piece to address the team's needs.
