The Red Sox are attempting to strike a three-way deal with the Rockies and Padres, with third baseman Mike Lowell shipped out of town and first baseman Ryan Shealy arriving here from Colorado. The Sox also would presumably obtain a more-than-reputable starter. Also figuring prominently in the rumor mill was Tampa Bay shortstop Julio Lugo. However, Trot Nixon?s right biceps strain during last night?s 10-4 loss to the Los Angeles Angels may have altered the Sox? plans substantially.
