"No Traction" on Oswalt Deal


So says WEEI.

PS. There never was. Cherington's offer, never disclosed, was never even described as close. I think it was two bags of frozen shrimp and a T pass.

I also don't think the Sox ever really wanted Oswalt, which is a perfectly reasonable decision. He's good but not great and already 34.

More mysterious is why Oswalt is so picky, even now.
