From a Red Sox perspective, I think they could be interested in Kemp because they could us a lefty bench bat. Also, I think Kemp could platoon with Christian Arroyo at 2B. I think that would help since Arroyo can never stay healthy for a full season. And for Oakland, they could get something for Kemp, who they could be set to lose after 2023 in free agent for nothing.

I think this is a solid offer, good job!

Cam Cannon got claimed off waivers by the Phillies on Dec. 7. He's a Lehigh Valley Iron Pig now.

Totally forgot about that. I just threw him in as a value filler because I'm not really sure what Oakland would want to receive back if they traded Kemp.

No worries. It's not an uncommon accident this time of year. I think Kemp could/should be available but Oakland's emphasis on wanting to be better in 2023 limits what they'd trade him for. I've pitched a Kemp to CWS idea for Kendall Graveman because the bullpen cost Oakland quite a few wins last season.

Somehow we missed that. Thanks for that catch. Fixed.
