Money no longer seems to be a problem as the Red Sox and Rangers have reached a preliminary deal to send Mike Lowell to the Texas Rangers:
The Red Sox have agreed in principle with the Rangers to a trade that will send popular third baseman Mike Lowell to Texas for catcher Max Ramirez, according to a baseball source. A money issue has also been resolved, the source said. Lowell will make $12 million this season, and the Sox will pay Texas some of his salary.
The remaining hurdle is medical clearance, usually a formality in most deals, but given the history of Lowell’s hip injury, the Rangers could get cold feet.
MLB.com Red Sox beat writer Ian Browne tweets the deal could be finalized in two to three days.
