It stands to reason that they might not have made that deal unless they are certain they can move Lowell...I was reading that at this point they will probably be willing to pay a good chunk of his salary (more than half) to get him off the roster.

Jerry Crasnick said he's heard whispers of a Luis Castillo-for-Mike Lowell deal, as Pedroia has been mulling over a move to shortstop.

Shit, I'd definitely take a majorly discounted Lowell as a platoon guy for Murphy...AND it gets Castillo off the books and gives the Mets a shot to bring in Hudson. I like it.
