Enter the Boston Red Sox's Mitch Moreland.The 34-year-old slugger is having an excellent year with a .350 average, 1.275 OPS and eight home runs in 72 plate appearances.The Red Sox meanwhile, are mired in last place in the AL East and have already begun selling assets, including closer Brandon Workman and reliever Heath Hembree to the Philadelphia Phillies.Moreland could see time at first base behind Matt Olson and at designated hitter, where he'd provide a lefty-swinging complement to Mark Canha's and Khris Davis' right-handed bats.Moreland would be owed only the remaining portion of his prorated $2.5 million salary, and he has an affordable $3 million club option in 2021, which should be attractive to penny-pinching Oakland.As for a return, the A's have a number of intriguing arms in the bottom third of their top 30 prospects who should interest the pitching-hungry Red Sox.The Chicago Cubs are leading the National League Central and intent on making another deep postseason run. Talk of trading any of their core players such as third baseman Kris Bryant is on hold until this offseason.Instead, the Cubbies should seek to boost a bullpen that ranks 29th with a 5.79 ERA.One of the better relief options who should be on the market is Kansas City Royals right-hander Trevor Rosenthal.In 14 appearances, Rosenthal has posted a 3.29 ERA with 21 strikeouts in 13.2 innings. It could use more arms in a starting rotation that lost budding star Mike Soroka to season-ending Achilles surgery and has yet to get an inning from veteran lefty Cole Hamels (triceps).But here's another area of concern: The team has also gotten exceedingly limited production from the third base duo of Austin Riley (.205/.256/.373) and Johan Camargo (.178/.221/.344).Atlanta could address its hot-corner deficiency by swinging a trade with the Seattle Mariners for third baseman Kyle Seager.Seager is having a nice season with the M's with a .290 average, .875 OPS, five home runs and eight doubles. The 32-year-old is owed $18.5 million next season with a $15 million club option for 2022 that becomes a player option if he's traded.That's not chump change, but he'd represent a massive upgrade.Atlanta would have to dip into its No. 3-ranked farm system, but if it were willing to absorb all of the money owed to Seager, it shouldn't have to part with any blue chips. Not only is Lynn pitching like an ace, but he's also signed for an affordable $9.3 million for 2021.The Rangers might demand outfielder/designated hitter Clint Frazier as a starting point and may also want top pitching prospect Clarke Schmidt.New York is in win-now mode, however, and should pay what it takes to plug an obvious hole.On Wednesday, Cleveland recalled right-hander Mike Clevinger from the alternate site, adding another twist to an ongoing saga.Clevinger, along with teammate Zach Plesac, was sent down after it was revealed that both players violated the team's COVID-19 safety protocols, angering teammates and creating a clubhouse distraction.
