So Is the Team For Sale, Or Not?


Depending upon whom you choose to believe, the Red Sox are for sale, or they're not.

Thursday Fox Business reported that the team could indeed be up for sale. Charlie Gasparino, who wrote the report for Fox appeared on WEEI on the Mut & Merloni program, followed almost immediately by Red Sox owner John Henry who refuted what Gasaparino has said just a few minutes earlier.

Among the highlights from Henry were statements that indicated Larry Lucchino has indeed signed a contract extension, and the August trade sending Josh Beckett, Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford and Nick Punto to the Dodgers was done strictly for payroll flexibility.
