REESE McGUIRE TO THE RED SOX
The Boston Red Sox acquired catcher Reese McGuire and a player to be named later or cash considerations from the Chicago White Sox for pitcher Jake Diekman.
What does it give the Boston Red Sox
The Red Sox traded away Christian Vazquez, their starting catcher, so McGuire should provide some depth at the position for the rest of 2022.
What does it give the Chicago White Sox
In Diekman, the White Sox get a left-handed reliever with a solid arsenal. McGuire was no longer needed with Yasmani Grandal back from injury.
Fantasy impact
Diekman could be a source of holds down the stretch, but that is about all. McGuire is a defensive catcher with little to offer on offense.
