If Red Sox are going to be sellers, these 5 could be prime candidates (opens original article in a new tab)

The Red Sox may consider trading several players ahead of the deadline, but contractual issues and performance factors could complicate deals.

• Gray has full no-trade rights and is a potential trade candidate due to his performance and contract details.
• Chapman is a dominant reliever with a mutual option in his contract, making him a valuable trade asset.
• Contreras has a five-year contract with club control remaining, making him less likely to be traded this summer.
• Duran is underperforming this season, making him a less attractive trade candidate despite his past success.
