Can move Youk to 3rd for good, and you can move Lowell and Ortiz for one more season at DH.

I believe the goal is to keep Bay since he's been a good replacement once they got rid of Manny and Lowell probably retires either this year or gives 1 more year. I don't think Pawtucket has any good 3rd base players ready so Youkilis to 3rd base frees them to get a good 1st basemen.
The big question is what to do with the closer since Papelbon has been shaky lately (mostly due to having a big mouth) while Bard isn't 100% ready to take over.
