Like many Red Sox fans, Joe Ryan was among those who were deceived by false social media posts that he had been traded to Boston prior to Thursday’s deadline. The Twins pitcher admitted that he thought he was on the move after seeing multiple social media posts from verified outlets that said that the Red Sox acquired him in a trade.

The Boston Red Sox made a surprisingly generous offer to the Minnesota Twins, but were turned down, a new report says.

The Boston Red Sox tried and failed to trade for Minnesota Twins ace Joe Ryan at the deadline, but this woulda-could-shoulda package probably gets it done.
