Going to guess that San Diego sent something to Boston to make this happen.

lol, now watch how popular Gallo is after the Sox didn't get him, and the Dodgers did.

I would LOVE to trade our relievers for a haul. There are always more to sign.

The Sox were not on his list last year. No idea what it looks like now.

To get whatever bribe SD will pay to get rid of him. They are willing to pay his salary. Take the money, take the players, and cut him.

Damn it Bob.

Now that is what a professional GM would do. See if they are not on the list and then try to get something for for taking him.

But wait, there's more.

My day is made. Of course I would rather be excited that the Sox are doing something productive, but this will have to suffice.

Come on baby, come to papa.

I need this chaos.

There has to be cash in there.

Please.

Just saw the Gore addition. Now that makes it a bit more interesting.

Yep, figured the initial statements of ask were too high. No Corbin contract, and not any big time current starters.

Last night Bummer, Kelly, Hendriks, Lopez, and Graveman were not available out of the bullpen. Bummer is not supposed to be back until September. This teams top lefty reliever right now is Tanner Banks. I also get the feeling this might be a pre-emptive move for something to do with Garrett Crochet. If it's not, and by some miracle of god the Sox have too many lefty relievers next year, there will be another team in MLB who needs one.

It's bottom of the roster management and nothing more. They turned a guy they were going to cut any day now into a usable left handed reliever, and they included either like 10k or an old kid struggling at A ball to make it happen. Look the Sox have had a lot of head scratchers, but this wasn't one of them.

It is worth pointing out that if it is cash considerations or a PTBNL that typically means either a garbage minor league player, or a minimal amount of cash. This is not like sending cash to cover a contract kind of cash.
