Youk dealt to the White Sox. Didn't see that one coming, at least not yet and definitely not for as little as what the Red Sox got back. Things must have soured very very quickly in Boston.

Started in ST when Valentine went to the media bitching about his attitude. He went to the DL and they called up the 3B of the future who's been hitting 100 points better.

I don't really care what they got in return because he's 33, injury prone, and would've been gone after this year anyway. Dude was a Yankee killer though.

Surprised they traded Youk to the White Sox. The prospects they got aren't that outstanding. Have alot of mechanical issues they have to fix, i've heard from Olney. Pitt has a better farm system could have gotten more

Pitching coach Bob McClure fired.

I like how multiple players bitch to the ownership about the manager...and the pitching coach gets shitcanned in late August. This organization is so fucking toxic right now.

Boston sports talk radio has NEVER been this much fun to listen to.

Now Crawford is getting surgery on Thursday. TJ surgery that should've happened IMMEDIATELY AFTER THEY REALIZED THAT THEIR $140M OUTFIELDER NEEDED TJ SURGERY. I hope that month they got out of him was worth him probably not being available until next June now.

Seriously, what a bunch of fucking idiots. Hopefully John Henry can stand being away from Liverpool for 5 fucking minutes to cut off some heads after this shit-show snuff film clusterfuck of a season is over.

Hate to see Bobby V fall on the sword for this one, but it's obvious he gets fired at the end of the year.

This team needs to do whatever it can to rid itself of the assholes (Beckett for starters) that created this toxic atmosphere. The last two years they were the exact opposite of the 04 team that won with less talent/more intangibles.

What sucks is knowing that Beckett will have a good season if/when he goes to a place he wants to be.

Josh Beckett claimed on waivers by the Dodgers.

He has 10/5 rights and could veto a move, but at this point I'm not sure why he would.

Edit: They also claimed Adrian Gonzalez.

RT @GordonEdes: red Sox, Dodgers working on deal that would send AGon, Crawford, Beckett and Punto to LA. Hurdles remain, but closing in
