Boston gets:
RP Chad Bradford
Oakland gets:
OF Jay Payton
Great trade for the Red Sox, their pen sucks and Bradford kills righties. And Payton is pretty much useless for them. Oakland is apparently going to either immediately trade Payton to the Rockies or Yankees; or trade Eric Byrnes somewhere, maybe the Giants. I think trading Byrnes is stupid, but if they can get a quality reliever or a RH bat for Payton they should do it.
