Reed will be traded to the Red Sox assuming his medical reports are cleared, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. The Mets will receive three prospects, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Mets will ship their closer to the Junior Circuit as they continue to rebuild. Reed has spun an excellent 2.57 ERA with 8.8 K/9, 1.1 BB/9 and 19 saves across 49 innings, but he's set to assume a setup role for Boston stopper Craig Kimbrel, so Reed's fantasy owners will be robbed of a source of saves. As for the Mets, they'll slide recently acquired A.J. Ramos into the ninth inning but may also incorporate Jeurys Familia (shoulder) if he can return this season.
