Despite all the rumors, Red Sox GM
Ben Cherington decided to essentially 'stand pat' with his horrifically underachieving team at the trade deadline. He did make
one minor move just before 4PM—getting former closer Ryan Cook from the Oakland A's for "cash considerations". So, this Titanic of a team will continue its slide to the bottom—with not much hope for 2016 either. Thank goodness there is a waiver trade deadline in August—when, after all, we made
The Great Punto Deal. We can only hope.
