There doesn’t seem to be much buzz around this weekend’s Red Sox-Yankees series, at least not to the extent we’re used to. That likely has to do with the fact that the teams are heading in different directions. The Yankees have won eight of their past nine series to move 15 games above .500 and are in first place in the AL East.

Boston and New York traded with each other only twice from 1997-2020. But they have completed four trades since 2021. The latest came at the Winter Meetings in December when Boston acquired catcher Carlos Narváez for pitching prospect Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz and $250,000 in international bonus pool space.
