The Boston Red Sox head toward the MLB trade deadline in need of more starting pitching. There may not actually be a ton available, though. The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal thinks Boston may have to settle for 41-year old Charlie Morton of the Orioles.

The Boston Red Sox have set themselves up to make the postseason if they put together a solid second half. However, they could use some upgrades.

The Red Sox righty, who was acquired in a trade last month, has a 0.87 ERA in 11 outings with Boston. He reached 102 mph when he was 20, he said.
