Over the past few months Boston Red Sox fans have seen a glimpse of the future with the young talent leading the way.
With the team in the market for a front-line starter, Lou Merloni sees some of the talent as untradable.
"I've said all year long, Bogaerts is untradable. I'm at the point now, so isn't Betts," said Merloni. "Neither one of these guys can go anywhere. As a matter of fact, they're extension-worthy this offseason. You try to extend these guys - obviously with Xander it's a little bit harder with [Scott] Boras. But I think you extend these guys and make them part of future here and get them past that free agent year."
