BEANTOWN FIRE SALE: LACKEY GETS DUMPED

The Red Sox are dumping their stars.  First it was Jon Lester for Yoenis Cespedes, now the latest is John Lackey has been traded to the Cardinals. Details are still emerging but Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.com tweeted it just a few minutes ago:

Peter Gammons says the Sox got pitcher Joe Kelly and first baseman Allen Craig:

And what have the Yankees done? Well, to be honest, I don't expect much. Truth be told, we have a solid lineup. They just don't know how to play together. Well, they better figure it out.

So there you have it... the chicken and beer crew is finally broken up.
