Manny Ramirez Traded, Red Sox Get Jason Bay in Return
Extremely eccentric Boston Red Sox outfielder Manny Ramirez has been traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a three-team trade that also involved the Pittsburgh Pirates sending all-star outfielder Jason Bay to the Red Sox. The blockbuster trade brings the trading deadline to a close with a BANG!
DODGERS GET: Manny Ramirez (LF)
RED SOX GET: Jason Bay (LF)
PIRATES GET: Adam LaRoche (3B) and Bryan Morris (P) from the Dodgers, Brandon Moss (OF) and Craig Hansen (P) from the Red Sox.
Instant Analysis: Manny should be happy. The Dodgers should be happy for the remainder of this year. The Pirates are getting a lot of talent for just Bay. The Red Sox seem to be giving up a lot for Bay in dealing Manny along with Moss and Hansen. The silver lining for the Sox is that Bay is under contract for two more years for a bargain.
