If the Boston Red Sox lose to the Detroit Tigers in the competition for Alex Bregman, a leading Red Sox blogger urges a trade for Detroit's Spencer Torkelson.

Alex Bregman is the most significant free agent still available, and he's expected to sign a contract worth over $200 million.

It went in the scorebook as an L-7, but Red Sox ownership should rewatch the at-bat and then get off the fence and sign Alex Bregman. Everyone remembers the situation.
