Red Sox Retool Roster with Eye Toward Long-Term Success at Trade Deadline

Red Sox are not pursuing short-term rentals and instead want players under team control.
Pitching, especially relievers with minor league options, are the priority for Boston at the deadline.
With key players returning from injury soon, Red Sox have played better lately despite earlier struggles.
Boston is open to trading veteran outfielder Adam Duvall and debating dealing pitcher James Paxton.
The playoff-hopeful Red Sox aim to build a sustainable core rather than go all in this season.
