I heard about that, I don't understand it. It works for hte DBacks because it gets El Dookie off out hands, solves a MI logjam (they signed Easley to be a backup MI before trading for Hudson, lame move but I doubt they anticipated getting him at all), and frees an OF spot for Carlos Quentin.
It doesn't do anything for the Red Sox. Cintron is a fine player if you plan on platooning him with a good LH batter (he hit .322/.359/.463 against LHPs from 03-05) but you don't want him playing every day because he's a below average fielder and doesn't hit RHPs very well. Terrero is a toosly guy but he's never put it together for any level of success. He's the type of guy you shold be able to pick up on hte waiver wire.
Despite his age, Wells is still a good pitcher. He doens't get many K's but he doens't walk anyone and doesn't give up HR's.
