Good trade for Red Sox's. At Sale's age and 3 years at a low salary left I think it is a good trade. To bad we didn't go after him.

Wow, what a deal for the Red Sox. Sale is lights out against every team except the Twins...just bizarre how we beat him up every time! The guy's stuff is the definition of filthy.

I wonder what prospects the Twins would have had to give up to get him. I can read about those prospects the Red Sox gave up but it only means so much if you know what I mean.

All 4 of the other central teams are letting guys walks due to budget concerns, so without really trying, the Twins will be 10 games better. And if they get four quality players for Dozier/Santana, and Hughes and Perkins can get healthy, they may not be embarrassing next year.
