The Red Sox sign Gagne...I guess this means we can forget the Wild Card. Although in retrospect (and listening to Sweeni Murty on WFAN), the Texans were totally unreasonable - they wanted Hughes, Chamberlain, or Tabata, and refused any offer that didn't include at least one of them. They basically tried to hold the Yankees hostage, and thankfully, Cashman didn't bite.
I agree. As much as it hurts to see Gagne go to Boston, at least the Yankees didn't get carried away and felt like they had to make a trade. I wouldn't have traded any of those guys either. I believe Gagne is a free agent at the end of the year so hopefully they can scoop him up then. Here's hoping Boston doesn't win the World Series!
