HOUSTON -- In the coming days, the complete haul of players coming back to the Red Sox in the Andrew Benintendi trade will finally be known.
The Sox are due to acquire the remaining three players to be named later (two from the Royals and one from the Mets) in the near future, an industry source confirmed. The player from the Mets -- assumed to be the best player of the three -- is due by Friday, a source said. The exact deadline for the clubs to identify the two Royals players is unknown, but the Kansas City Star’s Lynn Worthy reported earlier Monday that the deal would be completed “as soon as the next week or two.” It is possible that the Red Sox negotiated different deadlines with Kansas City and New York.
Check this out Moon, per MassLive. You were right about the names being known soon. Mets 'deal' is up first. I'm guessing a pitcher.
