As the 2023 MLB Trade Deadline came and passed, the Boston Red Sox remained on the quieter, more conservative side. Last week, they traded Kiké Hernandez to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Minor League pitching prospects Nick Robertson and Justin Hagenman. Then, they acquired right-handed reliever Mauricio Llovera from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for Minor League pitching prospect Marques Johnson. On Tuesday, as the final hours of the trade deadline passed by, Chaim Bloom made one last move, acquiring infielder Luis Urías from the Milwaukee Brewers and gave up No. 37 ranked prospect Bradley Blalock, a pitcher. In this episode of Locked On Red Sox, Gabby reacts to the trade and shares why Urías could make sense for Boston's current situation. This move posts a lot of questions, so Gabby tries to make sense of why it happened and what it says about Bloom's overall vision for the Red Sox moving forward.

Reese McGuire was back in the Red Sox lineup on Tuesday night after being out for several weeks with a right oblique injury. Gabby breaks down what his return means for the Red Sox and catcher Connor Wong, who has taken on significant workload behind the dish as of late. Catcher Jorge Alfaro was DFA'd upon McGuire's return.
