Prospect\'s Health Holding Up Mookie Betts Trade 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Feb 6, 2020 1:33 pm

The three-team trade that would send Mookie Betts and David Price to the Los Angeles Dodgers is being held up because of questions regarding the health of one player involved in the deal, according to sources.

Officials from the teams involved still expect the deal to be completed.

The deal was verbally agreed to on Tuesday night, but the Red Sox are concerned by a medical review of pitching prospect Brusdar Graterol.

In addition to Betts and Price going to the Dodgers, the Red Sox were set to receive Alex Verdugo and Graterol, while the Minnesota Twins would get Kenta Maeda.
