Trade Deadline

There were a lot of rumors recently of trades involving Nixon and Crisp, but with the injury to Trot last night I don’t see either of them being moved. Furthermore, I don’t see the sox trading any of their young arms. Thus, despite the Yankees move, the sox making most likely will not make any big deals today.

The most persistent rumor I have seen is a trade that would send Lowell to Tampa for Julio Lugo and the Padres being involved and the sox getting set up man Scott Linebrink who I know pretty much nothing about. I don’t really understand the point of that trade.

Should be interesting to see where Soriano lands and if Tejada gets dealt.

Ben Affleck should have his sox nation membership revoked after failing to fight for that foul ball last night. He could have saved the sox an out.
