Ahead of Sunday’s game, news came out that the Red Sox had traded Connelly Early to the Washington Nationals.
The Red Sox wrote (via X): “The #RedSox have acquired INF Curtis Mead from the Washington Nationals, in exchange for LHP Connelly Early.”
After the trade, Jarren Duran was asked for his thoughts on the deal (h/t NESN).
Duran: “Connelly, he was in here like saying his goodbyes to people… He was emotional. I was emotional with him. It was just tough to see him go… It just sucks to see a young guy when you’ve kind of seen him kind of develop into the big leagues.”

Early had spent both of his MLB seasons with the Red Sox.
Right now the 24-year-old is 7-5 with a 3.44 ERA in 17 starts.
ESPN’s Buster Olney wrote: “The price that the Red Sox paid for Curtis Mead seems excessive — Connelly Early has less than a year of service time, and looks like he’ll be a really good starter for a long time. But keep in mind that starting pitching is generally plentiful in this trade market, while good RH hitting is scarce. A premium was paid for Mead, who is having his best season.”
