Rumors No More: Lackey Deal With Red Sox Reportedly Done

The Red Sox and John Lackey have reportedly agreed on a five-year deal, "worth slightly more than ... $82.5 million."

When the signing becomes official, it will give the Red Sox a rotation of Jon Lester, Josh Beckett, Lackey, Daisuke Matsuzaka and Clay Buchholz/Tim Wakefield (assuming Buchholz doesn't get traded to San Diego for Adrian Gonzalez) -- arguably the best in baseball, and certainly better than their rivals in the Bronx.

SB Nation's Red Sox blog, Over the Monster, will have plenty more reaction to this deal.
