Okay, maybe not the most creative title, but it was the best I could do. Anyways, as everyone has now heard third baseman Kevin Youkilis is no longer with the club that made him famous. Youk was traded immediately after his game in Boston to the Chicago White Sox. In return, the Red Sox picked up utility man Brent Lillibridge and right handed pitcher Zach Stewart. It is quite emotional I am sure for Boston fans as Youk was a big part of their 2004 World Series win. It was a good trade for both teams. Both teams picked up valuable assets that will help them contend. Here is a look back on some of Youk’s highlights as a Boston Red Sox…
I def think it is a good move… White Sox needed a third baseman… And they got him… Also a utility infielder being able to play first as well…
