This came out last week, so it’s already dated by the fact the Red Sox signed Marco Scutaro. That ends their flirtation with moving Dustin Pedroia to shortstop, which makes irrelevant my opinion that they should trade for Brandon Phillips if Pedroia were to move to short.
Fortunately, the other three scenarios I outlined in the story are still possible, although the Dodgers’ move could be classified as “Less likely to happen than for Jamie McCourt to scrape by on $200,000 per month.”
