"2 minor leaguers"?

Which minor leaguers? That's very important, you know.

I'm guessing Hanley + SP prospect.

Hanley Ramirez was one, and the other was a SP.

"The Marlins and Red Sox appeared to be closing in, by early Monday evening, on a trade that would send Josh Beckett and Mike Lowell to Boston for shortstop Hanley Ramirez and one of the Red Sox's top pitching prospects."

You so smart JoA.

This isn't really surprising, every Red Sox trade rumor that was non-Manny for the last 3 years has seemed to have Hanley Ramirez in it. I'm just surprised that they may actually do it. They are pretty high on Dustin Pedroia though too, so maybe they feel they can lose the middle IF talent.

Pedroia's been the guy in the minors actually getting results while Hanley's been Corey Pattersoning it getting by because he's athletic and toolsy and black.

I agree with you pretty much, I guess I'm only surprised since after a guy is in trade rumors year after year, you start to think the team will never actually deal him. I think it's a good gamble for the Red Sox. I especially like the Lowell/Beckett Yankee ties/history. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
