On Thursday, the Los Angeles Dodgers traded Dustin May to the Boston Red Sox in a unique buyer-for-buyer trade. Afterward, General Manager Brandon Gomes revealed how it happened.

After being "kind of pushed out" in Los Angeles, new Red Sox starter Dustin May is excited to join a pennant race — and keep starting — in Boston.

The Boston Red Sox's 2025 trade deadline is widely considered a failure. Instead, Craig Breslow, the team's chief baseball officer, decided to invest in lower-tier additions to help push the team over the hump and into the postseason.
