The Red Sox and Angels are competing for the acquisition of Adam Duvall, with the player likely to choose between the two teams. Duvall had a salary of $7M last year and was valued at $14.9M. The market for Robert Stephenson, a top righty reliever, is gaining momentum with interest from the Mets, Dodgers, and Phillies.

If the broke ass Red Sox are really looking to trade Kenley Jansen to shed payroll, I would imagine that Josh Hader finding a landing spot would expedite that process for teams in the closer market.

As the Josh Hader talks pick up with Houston, per @Ken_Rosenthal and @Chandler_Rome, the market is moving forward for Robert Stephenson, the top available righty reliever. The Mets, Dodgers, and Phillies are among the clubs with interest in Stephenson. @MLBNetwork
