Curtis Mead was acquired by the Red Sox in a trade from the Nationals but suffered a fractured wrist during his debut with the team. The injury is a significant blow to Boston, who made the move to bolster their roster. The setback raises the question of whether the Red Sox will need to re-enter the trade market to replace him.
